- kenjackson 7y agoThe block watch captains already do this and are way nosier. Sure maybe only 12 hours per day rather than 24, but busy bodies are nothing new and even worse if you ask me.
- iudqnolq 7y agoI've lived in a few different places in the US, including the Bay Area, and never met a block watch captain. Do they actually walk around that frequently?
- kenjackson 7y agoNo, they usually watch from a window or the front porch. Typically they are the ones who know everyone's business in the neighborhood.
- hanniabu 7y agoIt'd probably better to require the camera to have near focus so anything ~30ft+ will be blurry and out of focus, aka the houses across the street.
- tqi 7y agoDo police require a warrant to surveil a location from the street (or some other location)?
- homonculus1 7y agoIf the cops actually show up on my street for a 24/7/365 stakeout you bet your ass I'm complaining about that scenario too!
- LinuxBender 7y agoNo. Anything they can see from the street, they can watch. The gray area AFAIK is what a drone can see from the street, but at higher elevations. That said, you and all your neighbors can file a complaint.
