Putting cameras in private homes is an anathema, it is a non-starter and a horrific dystopian vision. You'll get no sympathy or understanding from me.

- JoeAltmaier 6y agoHouse arrest? I can understand the point. Its a cheaper form of prison. All prisons have cameras. How about, they either go to prison, or agree to have their home fitted as a prison. Is that less dystopian?
- dheera 6y agoExactly my point. We want to reduce the taxpayer burden of prison, but still keep the streets safe. House arrest is a way to build a cheaper AND more humane prison, and one that is also much better for rehabilitation and access to education and employment. The cameras would come off once their house arrest term is over.
- eloff 6y agoAh, I misunderstood where you're coming from. Yes, I think that could work. We do converging along those lines with parole ankle trackers. House arrest is better than prison for certain kinds of non violent offenses.
