- there are strict laws about what surveillance video can be used for
- surveillance video is rarely abused
- people with video cameras are a whole lot more likely to upload me to youtube and facebook (where I'll stay forever, possibly with nasty comments both by the uploader and commenters)
- while surveillance video will most likely be deleted within 14 days or 3 months or something
I'll happily
- take 10 surveillance cameras
- over one random person pointing filming me
- today
That said, I think there might be too much surveillance. And it might be dangerous in the future.
The person who wants to make a funny video with me is however a more imminent threat.
