I'm sick and tied of cameras (lemmy.zip)

They are literally everywhere. I can't go any place without being watched. I just want some privacy. The most alarming part is that they put cameras on all entrances and exits so they can know who's entering or leaving. Why do they need to stalk me as I go about my day? The area I live in is overall pretty safe so I don't see the justification.

I have also noticed that some people actually feel safe where there are cameras. I get that people can get scared but I don't think creating a giant network of mass surveillance is the answer.

What is this dystopian future we have marched into.

Have also provided the footage to police to prove that said neighbor who stole stuff assaulted another neighbor in the street since the camera covers the driveway.

The problem is: the very next step is "why don't you just provide a live feed of your cameras to the police?" Maybe we can start with just part of the time, like when you're on vacation. Hey, we'll give you a great deal on your insurance... for the first year.
