That is not true, there are a lot of police/government owned CCTVs in public places in the UK. They even had some initiatives, were some of those had speakers attached so the person monitoring the camera calls out "unwanted" behaviour. I would say ignoring the fact that the US and UK have set up and are running (well the UK is really just tagging along) in the biggest worldwide surveillance operation on the planet is the intellectual dishonesty. Also I never said that the existence of a camera indicates surveillance, that's a straw man. However, the existence of automatic licence plate tracking is definitely an indication of surveillance. The wikipedia article on UK mass surveillance is quite enlightening. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mass_surveillance_in_the_United_Kingdom https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mass_surveillance_in_the_Unite...
