I mean, I don't doubt criminals use cameras just like the police do, but... how do they know all these cameras are for criminal purposes?

- Gasp0de 4y agoI assume they just took down some random 500 cameras (the photo even shows a shop that probably has their own camera system to prevent theft) and claimed it as a huge success against the mafia. This is what happens when you need to show that you are getting the bad guys when you don't have a single clue.
- wasmitnetzen 4y agoThe photo in the article is just a random photo of Albanian police with a filter, it has nothing to do with the operation in question.
- boomboomsubban 4y agoThe FT source article had an Albanian representative saying not all cameras were tied to organized crime but they were all set up illegally. If the cameras themselves were illegal, they're necessarily for criminal purposes even if being used in an innocent manner. That said I have no idea what Albanian law they were breaking. Mounted to public property is my guess, but it's based on nothing.
