A convincing case against this probably can't be made. But that's the problem. Each incremental step towards more surveillance, less privacy, and more potential for government abuse is perfectly justifiable and seems reasonable. But then temporary turns to permanent. And the "significant events" restriction gets dropped. And 450 cameras from local businesses turn into thousands from others, or Rings, or Teslas, or whatever. And then manual monitoring by humans turns into AI-powered monitoring. And the looking at cameras gets combined with location data. The point is, each step is reasonable. But who knows where it goes? We have no idea, nor do we have any idea who will be on the other side watching or what their agenda will be in 5 years, 20 years, or 100 years. So it's important to stay vigilant of any incremental privacy incursion or expansion of government power. It doesn't mean saying No necessarily, but being aware and cautious.
