Alot of people refer to 1984. But i think it is a good thing if every street had a security camera. It would identify criminals whether the crime takes place at 5.00am or 5.00pm. It would make me feel much more safer.
They make me feel less safe. Anything that could previously happen can still happen, plus the cops can identify me? No thanks. (and yes, they do work for stuff like identifying these bombers. I'm not denying that. If you'd have one on every street you wouldn't get that nasty effect of crime just spilling into the next road instead that you do get wherever you got surveillance cameras in Frankfurt.)

No relation between parts one and two. Would you like a police surveillance camera in your bathroom? Since you got nothing to hide?

Oh, might I add that there is one office building in Frankfurt that's got pretty prominent surveillance cameras on the front and I know for a fact that they are not working, never have been, are in fact beyond repair if you don't want to tear half the facade down, because I know the guy who installed them.
