although there are some legitimate concerns about privacy, the tradeoff here seems worth it.
if it were expanded to everywhere in London I believe we will catch criminals quicker.

- evgen 8y agoIf you are going to throw out the quote, please learn the actual correct quote: "Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety." If fact, it would probably serve you well to learn that actual context of the quote as well (hint: it is not about the conflict between government power and individual liberty...)

- nyberg 8y agoAt the cost of privacy? Wouldn't that make a huge part of the population "criminals"? They hardly teach law in UK schools meaning most of the population may be unaware of some of the smaller offences which are usually not much of an issue. It could also be used to wrongly place you at a scene where you had nothing to do with it.
- SlowRobotAhead 8y ago>I believe we will catch criminals quicker That’s a good lad, they have trained you well. Surely omnipresent and forced surveillance could never be used against YOU... you’re a good boy. To have so little vision of the past, present, and future. Must be blissful!
