Folie de frère : Appareils-photo observant des appareils-photo

La société de surveillance n'est pas contenu simplement pour observer tous les nous, partout nous allons, mais considérons maintenant la surveillance de ses propres appareils-photo, car les membres du grand public se rebellent contre l'augmentation dramatique de ces systèmes de érosion d'intimité - par détruire des méthodes de surveillance les plus dédaignées au R-U, l'appareil-photo de vitesse.

Des vandales, des combattants de liberté ou des patriotes, vous décidez, aviez visé des appareils-photo de vitesse près de la frontière écossaise le long de l'A68, de l'A1 et de l'A697 dans Berwickshire. Seven attacks in three years have officials and Big Brother supporters worried.

Colin McNeil, head of the Lothian & Borders Safety Camera Partnership, the company who manage the cameras said: “Every time it happens it is inconvenient, it is costly and it is a crime. It is obviously something that we are concerned about to such a degree that we are now looking at potential ways of monitoring sites.”

“There are companies there who would provide us with CCTV coverage of the cameras themselves - the cameras looking after the cameras kind of thing.”

The logical step in a democracy would be to remove the cameras instead of spending even more of the taxpayers’ money to replace them, as the message has clearly been sent that this form of surveillance is not acceptable.

However the authorities are continuing to advance the nationwide surveillance of drivers by taking technology to new levels with the Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR) system, which feeds vehicle and driver information into the Police National Computer database, the Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency database and insurance databases.
