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.

    Cameras have become incredibly cheap.

    DVRs no longer require tapes or security personnel.

    Every business will put a camera on entries and exits and just record everything in case they ever need it.

    The vast majority of them don’t care who’s coming in and leaving, Even beside their view of cameras as a theft deterrent, if somebody walks and holds up a register and bolts having the footage for that might pay for their entire camera setup for years.
