Borr 6,937 Posted February 15 Report Share Posted February 15 Also our cameras are more for policing crime and terrorism , where I'd say chinas is more for state control . I'm not saying ours aren't used for other things Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Another soapbox subject for me…..another national shame. For context, don’t you think it’s hideous that we have allowed our country to get to a point where people feel they need CCTV on the f***ing front door ? Its a massive marker of our collective decline imho Any sane government would be aiming for a society where you don’t feel the need to have such things 6 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
