I don’t know what’s more surprising: that my first thought was ‘so what, most Tube trains in London have CCTV, and so do all the buses’ - or that I find that normal.
Martin Deutsch (again, sorry; but he says interesting things I like responding to) on the reports that the NYC MTA are to use CCTV in the New York Post.
A random, longwinded observation of my own. Those “secure beneath the watchful eyes” ads that everyone from Boing Boing down took exception to (years after they were actually on the streets)? I was never that bothered by them, either. At least if you’re going to have CCTV, tell people about it.
