People need to get over our unreasonable fear of "Big Brother". When I lived in London I never felt oppressed or in danger of some government conspiracy. In fact, I always felt much freer than I do here. Even have seen people walking down streets smoking joints right in front of the CCTV without a care. Everyone there knows that the cameras are there to catch big fish doing big bad things. Camera operators could care less what us peons are doing. In London, I did however feel extremely safe, even walking home in the wee hours of the night. Regarding the crime cameras: bring them on.
