There is a very big difference between standard CCTV cameras and automated high resolution facial recognition ones. Standard CCTV is used to collect evidence when a crime has been committed. Automated facial recognition cameras are used for real time tracking. China makes extensive use of the facial recognition ones and London only has those near Kings Cross station (which has recently caused a public outcry).

- dhimes 7y agoWhat is "tidy" parking?
- pjmlp 7y agoNot parking in places not explicitly marked as such.
- apta 7y agoSeems that CCTV is doing its job then eh? :-)
- pjmlp 7y agoSure, but having been the first generation to learn about freedom, while everyone else from previous generations were either forced into colonial war, or had to enjoy a CCTV like state, I don't enjoy the feeling of not being able to do stuff, because "someone might be watching".
