Yes the UK is more like an open-prison than a democratic state. You are watched and told how to live your lives. 5-A DAY, 2 LITRES A DAY, NO SMOKING. Unfortunately the EU failed to act upon Tony Blair's Government- obsessed with collecting data on its people, watching their every move by various public bodies, a lack of clarify was and still is in abundance. The EU is the only force which could have stopped them. I no longer live in Great Britain a country beyond repair.
Oh my. this is terrible. i mean it isnt as bad as this in America, but i get where your going at. Im only 13 and i hate those stupid cameras. one day there going to use those things against our own will and our "security" will come crashing down all around us. I sometimes wish i could walk somewhere or have a good time without sometype of device watching me.But who is really watching us IS the Real question..
People should be aware that the police and govt agencies will break into your home, stick surveillance devices & intrude deep into your personal life. They can use any excuse to do this, a popular one is the terrorism act, that means they only need to think you’re a terrorist & yet you’re an innocent individual. I can without a shadow of a doubt state this, if the police have it in for you, for whatever reason, they will abuse these laws to commit the worse crimes against someone they dislike.
BIG BROTHER IS WATCHING YOU…TAKING A CRAP ON THE TOILET.
LOL. Sorry I couldn’t resist saying that.
Perverted bastards these governments agents are.
As Yoda would say.
When a government becomes to intrusive and oppressive on the people it is the right of the people to overthrow that government and replace it with a Constitution obeying government.
Its all invasion of privacy Im in the UK we have too many of these things. I may eat in a most gross way if I am eating near a camera especially for the cam or my next door neighbour sticks fingers up at it. Or many people may perform infront of it as some sort of prank.
1:03 to 1:14 are PIR devices to control the traffic lights but that's just being picky. CCTV doesn't bother me because if it is ever used to control or monitor me to an extent that it interferes with my liberty my trusty air rifle, a baseball cap and scarf combined with a good pair of running shoes provides an excellent counter measure.
This is nothing, your television,computer and telephone are all surveilance devices and you are being watched in your home and personal life. Without your informed consent your Fouth Ammendment Right to Privacy has been taken away. The Patriot Act is grants the Corporations/Government the authority to enter your home at any time without telling you. Secretly without your informed consent surveilance technology has been intergrated into the electronic devices you purchase and use everyday.
I think the real question about CCTV is "Why would I care?" Why would I care about cameras following me? The only real information that CCTV gives to the government is statistical data on population movements. Why would they government focus their attention on you and not the other 70 million people? What makes you important? (Not you personally) As far as I'm aware, Police CCTV cameras are not allowed in residential areas unless there is high crime rate. If I were you, I'd talk to your council
It didn't work for the london bombings, we (the public) was only given shady looking still shots that leave more questions than answers, also most cameras didn't even work, or were broken that day, or were being serviced or failed or something.
fuk cctv - great point - who is the guy watching? Is he qualified to be observing me, concentrating on me and my surroundings - is his thoughts about me all day and all night going to mess with his or my mind? if cctv moulds and creates a culture of hoodies - then what will big brother cause the culture to become? Governments should not mess with human beings - they are also human most of the time - its going to hurt them in the end -
Yay Durham :-), I used to attend a sixth form college here and noticed one day during lunch break somebody shoplifted something from what was Woolworths, upon exiting the shop every single camera in the marketplace instantly zoomed on and tracked this person, all four of them, and its only a small market place!
CCTV never stopped a single crime, if it did they why are so many crimes caught on cctv. The police now aren`t interested in investigating anything other than serious crime unless there is cctv footage.
I Watched This Video Earlier This Year. America Is Following This Blueprint (Tho We Are Not There Yet), But America Is Getting Close. We Have Cameras At Almost Every Intersection. Anyways... I Have A Conpiracy Network & Im Posting This Video On It. Feel Free To Stop By & Talk About CCTV & NWO:
Very great postage, very poor that people are becoming sheeps and are not mind to live in Ghettos of Big brother. Ure very right the only response is Waking up among humanity. Revolution economicaly, culturally and socialy. people are keeping being ignorant by that actions they Digging their own grave yards. Big brother never sleeps. WAKE THE HELL UP and arm yourself
it is dangerous when government believes that they can solve society's "ills". True --> people today are less polite and more crass than prior time periods but that can only be solved within the individual and not coerced by politically-correct goon squads
I don't see a problem with CCTV in public areas. Of course, surveillance of your own property by others is inexcusable but CCTV is mainly for public and business surveillance. CCTV is for your own good, it is for public safety, if someone is kidnapped in a town centre, police can be dispatched or if someone commits a crime, the perpetrators can be identified.
Y'all going 2think I'm nuts, but, I been thinking about this 4awhile.
The cameras, every where I go, they r there. The minute I walk out the door, its staring at me right in the face. I get on the bus, it's looking at me from like 10 different angles. My freedom of privacy, I no longer have it. Makes me wonder if there is a bigger reason for all this madness. The eye on the sky, the satellites, zooming-in the most of intimate of me, is there a bigger plan behind all this? "THE ALL SEEING EYE"?
Yea, but my point was that all this madness was actually foreseeing along time ago.That's where I was heading.
The all seeing eye in the sky, thats been prophesied.
There is a bigger purpose for all this corruption & pretty soon we will b witnessing a bigger power, a bigger system & an unstoppable force that will destroy & devour much of the earth, & it's inhabitant will b force to join.
But those who knew & believe the truth, will b rescued from such atrocity
LONDON BOMBINGS..... watch 7/7 ripple Effect documenatary....and also ask Who woudl do suck small and stupid like Once in Glasgow couple years ago? - BENEFIT? ' "Effectivity"?'
CCTV will be used against the public to great effect when corrupt people and laws come to power, be warned these things are here to control your life.
So carmenlee, tell you what, let the government plant CCTV in your house right, and if your not doing anything wrong in your house, ie; smoking cannabis are whatever, then since you've nothing to hide, you've nothing to fear eh ;]
SAY NO TO LABOUR! AND GET LABOUR OUT! Before this gets worse! Dont give away your freedom for secuirty!
London Bombings Was Fake. Photoshop On CCTV & 9/11 Attacks Was Fake. I AM NOT BEING DISRESPECTFULL 2 THE LIVES LOST. The Governments Are Doing This 2 Their Own People So They Can Plant Soldiers & Cameras All Over he Street... Then They Can Unleash MATIAL LAW.
Really, if you don't have anything to hide (by your logic) cops should be able to waltz into your home at will. You and your children could be dragged into a police station for questioning. Or you could be killed for saying that your leaders are idiots. Sure, your natural rights as a human being are kinda cheap. Who cares which ones you have to give up.
I see what you are saying about rights, But by my logic I dont believe they should be allowed to wonder into our homes. B ut I dont have a problem with CCTV. Like it or not it is hear to stay
Where was that footage, seemed to be a nice town, saying that couldn't imagine many americans living in hackney.
Well anyway, there are pros and cons with cctv, I was robbed a couple of years back on the bus, and thankfully due to cctv the robbers were able to be caught, something similar happened to my mate.
However it does appear we having too much cctv, in locations where it is not needed, i am against the tax revenue cameras, which are everywhere in london, just trying to exploit.
the statement about the london bombings needs a bit more lookin into if you want to be spot on with what you're sayin, good short film tho, DOWN with the surveilance state, help get the real Britain back before its too late, VOTE UKIP this june
they will say traffic cameras are there to deter motorists crimes, market cameras to deter muggings, and cameras outside your flat to deter burglaries, you ask your self what really is the concept of 'right to privacy', i think we have no rights, using george carlin's words, "we have liberties that can be taken away at any time".
@MsProud2b Wow man heart goes out to you. I'm worried for the USA but you guys have it so much worse.
Screw the "safety" crap you're grown men and women you can take care of yourselves! You do not need a nanny or someone to watch you to keep you safe, its pathetic and a violation of human rights!
The cameras were not working in the London subway bombing of 2005 because the government did the bombing. Killing it's own citizens to have an excuse to invade Iraq.
so there are no positives in this scheme for the British people, just negatives. After world war 2 Winston Churchill did away with the notion of ID papers for all citizens, and implemented a free constitution, all aimed at preventing government fascism to prevent a Nazi style dictatorship ever happening in Britain. Lets hope we don't go back to such times,only reason i see for this scheme is to reduce British freedoms by increasing state control over the British people. That's facism in my book
information that could well be erroneous. The ID card will become the gold standard of identity in Britain, which will in turn lead to an over reliance of trust in the card by police, government agencies, banks, air port security etc and this trust will mean less checks are done. The airline industry opposed the introduction of ID cards to their workers, saying it would lead to less stringent checks on those they employ which would actually increase the risk of terrorism.
then there's the inevitible administrative cock ups in implementing the scheme,it will end up costing billions more than the billions they already think it will cost, they'll get peoples identities mixed up through imcompetance,and they're bound to get some people's details wrong or enter them incorrectly, all leading to false arrests by the police, mistaken identity, cloned cards to steal your identity, refused credit from banks, refused a job etc, all because of the information on the ID card
i agree! ID cards...Apart from them being pointless and not any use in tackling crime, fraud, or terrorism, they're going to cost billions, it's more big brother state control, the technology will be figured out by criminals and they'll be making fake ID cards for terrorists and other criminals making us less safe and more open to identity fraud, and our personal private details, fingeprints and iris scans will be lost by the government, stolen, or sold to private businesses without our say so.
GOOD OBSERVATIONS.They sell these to the stupid public siting 'better public safety', in actual fact Authorities got scared in 1980's wih poll tax riots in London,and discontent with poorer working people, since then these have arrived cops armoured and go a loT 'less free', Judicial system here is only fair for rich men/people. Them cops/ state and everyone else is just a potential victim 'court fodder' in my opinion.
britain and america scuttled! get out of new babylon. don't you realise how much more paranoid you feel? it's because of all the cameras. i'm sick of being gawped at by the luciferian all seeing eye! fire an arrow of the lord into the eye of lucifer.
I.d cards as well are out of the question, i mean it has been prooven that they will not actually prevent terrorism, and you would be more of a threat to identity theft. I dont know why the plan is going ahead, i have even heard about police officers being against them ! We are now more watched than the eastern bloc countries where during soviet reign.
i went to london recently and I was like WTF this is over the top. First day I thought nah im just being paranoid but then I thought im not paranoid someone IS watching me. its getting worst they want to introduce ID cards, biometric passports, 42 day detention without charge and now they are beginning to record every phonecall, email, text message and internet session.
the people of my nation are too busy shopping for shit and getting drunk to notice.
Biometric passports are being introduced because of the States requiring it to get to the States without having to goto a go to a stupid beuro months in advanced.
The person who watches the cctv cameras where you live is a licenced oparative. Who have to under go police checks,complete courses. You can not obtain a licence without going on the course. It is also illegal to observe member of the public via cctv without a licence. Also the cctv installers would have programmed privacy screens over the windows these are big black squares making it impossible to look in. Also the system will be registered with the data commisioner allowing you subject access
Maybe nobody wants to be filmed walking into a pub called Fighting Cocks...they might be afraid of getting their Peta Membership revoked....but this really brings up a valid point. The reason many people are paranoid of the CCTV, is because there are radical fringe groups like PETA that out there that would insist on the information being available via the Freedom of Information Act, so they can out people as being anti-animal or otherwise use the info for political gains. jst a thought.--cb80
Very good points. I think it's odd that some people feel that CCTV is intrusive, while others really kind of put themselves out there for the whole world to see on YouTube. It's an example of the different extremes people will go to to either fiercely protect their privacy or to just as fiercely put themself on a world stage to openly flaunt it. It would be interesting to know what all the privacy-conscious ones out there are trying to hide.
I can't say that I like being filmed I don't even like having my picture taken. I have to say that really would keep me from moving to a city. I don't like being watched.
Camaras may not work very well now but that will soon be corrected. Taxes will be found to improve and set up 24 hour monitoring of more and more cameras. This has already happened in my town - a sleepy small town where there is already virtually no crime. People don't complain because, unbelievably, they have faith in the police and authorities.
If people don't like what's happening, they should join an organisiation like Liberty at once. look it up on the net now, please.
this is govern spying on people making sure they are "safe" as sheep in the farm....cctv didn't protect Joao Charles de Meneses being killed by special forces on the London tube with 8 shots in the head...Are we really safe???
It is illegal to photograph or record CCTV, I hope you have permission....
Looking at the cameras is classed as supicious behavior & will get you watched by both CCTV & by your local authorities covert camera cars.. A new wave of covert CCTV cameras have been installed inside & outside public toilets across the UK, for public safety & security. The government mantra is "Those with nothing to hide have nothing to fear". Fear?? Nobody should live in fear!
If you complain you become of interest & WILL be subject to intensive survelience!
By recording all thoes cameras you will have become very interesting to the security services for a while... They will know more about you than you do yourself!
They will have lost interest quickly after listening to the phone calls of you, your family & friends.
Problem is you are now on the political activist list, if the wrong gov comes to power you & probably I will end up in the same pit.
It is still illegal to install survelience equipment inside changing rooms, toilets etc. Outside is permitted but inside its going way too far and is a crime if detected.
cctv instalations in toilets is permited. Although the cameras are not allowed to look at the urinals or over cubicals. They are usually installed looking at the entry door and the sink area. As this is in a pub. The system has to be registered with the ICO
oh thats okay then as long as its registered with the ICO I really dont mind in fact put one in my bedroom after all it is registered to the ICO...and thats all okay
If you install a cctv camera in your home internal or external here in the UK then under section 36 of the data protection act you are exempt from compliance. So the system does not have to be registered with the information commisioners office. Anyone caught on camera does not have the statutory right to access the recorded images. However if it is in a public place the system has to be registered with the ICO to comply with the data protection act. This allows you statutory access to images
sorry to say but Big Brother is also watching every single we type in youtube comment section. Faintstarlite I am totally totally agree with you and your video is really REALLY terrifying me cuz here in toronto I think I have a lot of independence , having not so many cameras around my building, but this is the world we have to live and survive otherwise one day no sooner or later you will lost it
Congrats on this superb Big Brother video surveillance commentary. You've presented an even argument and then managed to get to the Heart of Video Surveillance. That is, just WHO is behind those cameras. In our city of Mississauga, Ontario, Freedom of Information have confirmed that this WHO (AKA Big Brother) has no oversight mechanisms in place and can "Deny Access" to his video surveillance conduct and operations (that is, hide) under the guise of "security reasons".
The reason I hate going to London is actualy because of the cameras. I live in France and there are some here (to much) but England is just frightning. Haven't they started putting up some cameras that tell you off?
Why don't londoners react and demonstrate. I think cctv should just not be allowed.
I can tell you one thing: if I lived in London I would just kill myself.
new york is the same way, but over here you have cameras inside your homes. like if you live in an apartment buildin youll see them inside your elevators, staircases, rooptops, and lobbies. so they basically know the second you leave your home and when you return..
u have had alot of bad comments on this video. well i have to agree with some of the comments but find alot of them a bit harsh. I am curently doing a prodcution piece on this issue at university and will adress some of the issues here....I like the questions u have asked and have precented this well.
Yes there are good and bad points to this 'big bother' society we now have, but i do think the comments on if ur new to youtube or not is irelivant! This is a good starting point to debate.
Theres like... Forums where you get whole pages and thousands of people chatting about this sort of thing... you dont have to limit it to an alternating fire on a youtube video comment :/
so now that you've been proven to be a liar and an idiot, you will now spam the offending comment off the front page of these comments to hide it from most of the viewers.
Have a look - they're official websites - they prove you wrong. It's not your fault you're not aware of the scale of the problem. Being an ostrich won't help you. I've given the website references for everyone to see for themselves. I've no idea why you'd be maintaining that the streets of London are safe for women? .. maybe you have some ulterior motive - sounds sinister.
they are official newspaper websites. A) they won't have access to all crimes committed B) they have a vested interested in creating the most fear possible, because fear sells. Telling people crime is falling does not sell (this is your logic). There is only one institution in the country that can know about crime rates nationwide, and that is the police. 1 order of humble pie on its' way to you.
... and the police don't have a vested interest in filtering and editing statistics? What do government politicians claim everytime they want to be voted in .. something like being tough on crime?
Newspapers report crimes as they happen - why should they cover them up? We have a right to know in the interests of our personal safety. Why do you want to censorship increasing crime reporting - don't you believe in free speech? The public has a right to know the truth.
crime recorded by the police "falls very significantly short" of that experienced by the public. The admission comes before an HMIC report that will disclose the true crime figures are at least 20 per cent higher than those recorded by the police.
Eat your own humble pie .. I've provided you with the very information that you don't want to hear, just look up the independant research which isn't manipulated by the government. I've known about this for years - you're obviously quite new to doing proper research. Do you have a job? Just wondered if anyone might employ you. You look like a long term benefit case living on some run down estate - watches daytime TV, spends 40hrs/week on the Internet.
Youtube has been around for years - you're the novice! My knowledge is based on researchable facts and data - not only from one source. If you only believe what the government wants you to believe, you're not getting the bigger picture. Governments lie, police are not 100% honest, police have been known to convict people on false evidence .. Scotland Yard has been party to the largest criminal act on UK soil - the 7/7 London Bombings.
False flag operations are nothing new. See 'Sir' Ian Blair exposed on 7/7 Ripple Effect - Why the British police shot 2 innocent muslims near Canary Wharf on July 7th 2005 - Why on 22nd July innocent Brazilian Jean Charles DeMenezes was executed in full public view. The British police are protectors of the Government not of the British public.
THE full extent of Britain's violent crime epidemic, which yesterday claimed the life of another teenager, is revealed in shocking new figures that show the number of street robberies involving knives has more than doubled in two years.
Attacks in which a knife was used in a successful mugging have soared, from 25,500 in 2005 to 64,000 in the year to April 2007. The figures mean that each day last year saw, on average, 175 robberies at knife-point in England and Wales -- up from 110 the year before and from 69 in 2004-5.
Statistics for the UK show that knife crime, muggings, violence against a person, street crime etc. has increased steadily year on year, especially since 2003. Women surveyed have expressed their concern and many take higher levels of precautions when out late ie. organising taxi cabs home, staying with groups of friends - keeping an eye on drinks. Women are having to become more alert and responsible for their safety.
What!!? No London bombers were ever caught from CCTV surveilance footage! No footage exists from 7th July 2005 showing any supposed bombers travelling the route from Luton to London King's Cross. Get your facts right! 7/7 Ripple Effect - Media reported many false accounts. No video evidence of any bombers exists. If you believe it does - state where this is reported.
but you got to remember ban guns and no guns will be used in crimes, ban long blade knives and nobody will ever get stabed again,now they want to ban jackets with hoods because people use them to cover their face when they shoot somebody. but i thought the 2.5 million cctv's and the gun/knife ban was suppose to stop that. and lets not forget in the future everybody will have lil cards that show where you shop and parents what their kids eat at school
i also live in the U.K and i got asked by a local TV crew to walk down a main shopping street and i fount out that from 57 shops i got caught on camera 94 times.
How long before this becomes so normalised over the geenrations, that we will be being observed in our own homes, to make sure we aren't breaking the law?
Who knows. As a matter of fact its close to that now. Consider how some crimes are just, strangely solved, when no witnesses were about, and up until a point noone knew anything... Then suddenly theres a 'forensic breakthrough' or something and suddenly they can point to a specific person at an exact location... Just a thought...
My questions are; When did we give our privacy up? who voted for my privacy to be violated? where was the meeting held? who decides these things? It's been said - for evil to succeed is for good to do nothing... is this a sign of it? Is it going to get worse? anyone?
b) They have Geostationary, satellites fitted with super-telephoto lensed infra-red cameras (Heat vision) So if they wanted to, they could lock in my location and watch me any time they wanted...Same goes for the rest of you.
anything your psychologist may have found out, all the countries youve visited, They have endless data on which they can look into, does this not make anyone feel the least bit violated? The least bit watched? Sure, I would argue against most conspiricers, and say that no, there isnt a camera set into my mirror, they dont watch me sleep. But consider the fact that a) They know pretty much all there is no know about me, and
how many people are in your family, your birth names, when you were born, when you die, all the medical treatment youve ever had, all dental, any condition you may or may have suffered,
It's quite hard to accept, hence why most people live blindly to this, but once you think about it, You realise just how much they know about you. Your adress, your car, its liscence plate number, if you have a TV, when that TV is turned on, what channels you watch,
Every picture your computer screen ever sees on a website, every single website you even visit, the things you may say or the videos you upload, the music you listen to, Even the reply im writing right now is being constantly monitored by computers and recorded into an ever-expanding database, And more government officials than your prefer to realise, can access all this data at the click of a button.
Call me a conspiricy theorist if you like, but its the cold hard truth. Every search you type into google, whether or not you click search, or just delete your phrase before you search it, is recorded.
Very disturbing, on their passports have they changed it from "citizen" to "suspect"
The people of the UK need to re-assess their role, are they a free people, with autonomy and self respect? or are they sheep who are monitored "for their protection" by a BIg Brother Government? sadly it appears the latter.
Yeah that is SOOOOOO weird....it's creepy. it's almost like u can't live a comfortable life. I know i wouldn't like that. Why do they have soooooooo many????? Also, that is expensive to have so many cameras. And hey, ur not still in the UK, are u?
Those cameras in the bubble and computerised and black out at certian locations, like windows. so everytime the camera rotates over the co-ordinates over the window it blacks it out. That's why they are the cameras used in most town centres.
Have we ever thought about this technology? The one we are using right here? people are telling on themselves every day, The govt doesn't really have to video us, were doing it for them! They know everything about us, because were telling them right here on youtube! They know our political views, our religious views,what our homes look like, what we own, what we do for a living, what we made for dinner last night. Think about it!
Oh yeah and dont metion the poor bastards that use facebook they have everything on there the government could own facebook for all we know why would they need cameras just go on facebook or my space they have pictures of them selves and videos.
They're getting us used to haveing cameras trained on us, by first introducing them at traffic intersections, next in shopping malls for 'security', and next was for public safety 'downtown'. Then they get to be more and more and more until we will be just like Britain.
force upon children to feed their glutony? theres a human behind the screen so wave at them, like me and my friend did while drinking cider out of an smashed guiness glass i found in Camelon at 5 am in the town centre crying with laughter at how easy life is when they try to hold us doon.
psssst-we have cameras too! *holds up mobile phone*
CLICK
(i think they can hear you too, cos they can speak to you aswell now)
you can block cctv with laser pens, you can *double* lasers quartz crystals, you can plant quick growing vines witch grow and block them, most evidence collected by cctv cameras isnt admissable in court, do the signals from cctv get split at nodes? isnt every money hungry fool looking for the lastest trend to exploit and
Yeah, I'm really surprised the Brits let that happen. I'm very disappointed in them. I'm even more disappointed that they dont do anything about it. Very complacent society lulled into sleep. Good luck with that.
At the moment a lot of caeras were installed in germany too and in my opinion it it a huge problem. People will to change their behaviour because of the cameras, doesn´t matter if they have done something wrong or not. This is a neagtiv influence to the freedom for a not prooven security aspect.
Also we in germany have bad memorys of total controle system in 1935 and in GDR...
The minute you step onto the street, you give up your privacy. As long as it's not in my bathroom I wouldn't care so much.
I hear about kids being abducted off streets and so on and they don't have a lead, this is one good way to get one. So in that sense it's a pretty good security tactic. Anyways, yea it's a little eerie to think about who's looking, but then again, you can't be alert of who's looking at you all the time when you're shopping, or at a resturaunt, or walking in the park, etc.
Ineresting view point, i hear a lot of people say this, i've always held the belief that Privacy is grounded in the person not some narrow designated spacial area, think about it,
I have mixed feelings about this. On the one hand I probably would be a bit concerned about cameras being around me all day on the street. Then again it would be nice to know that when I don't make it safely past a group of wannabe gangsters it can be brought to court on video. However, a society that is better policed and more civilized in general would eliminate the idea of need for constant video surveillance.
Just wait until we all have a RF chip embedded in our necks like the Democrats want. Ron Paul is about the only one that voted AGAINST a national ID card, and is the only pro-freedom candidate in this election.
Most of the surveillance, not just video cameras but transaction monitoring, habit monitoring is done by private corporations. We don't really think about this do we? We worry about the government doing it but not corporations. That's what concerns me.
What a frightening thing that has happened! That's a difference between Europeans and us Americans I guess...We could never let that happen, it's a huge invasion of privacy and freedom. As RoopGB pointed out, areas with the cameras continue to have "cars getting broken into, people keep getting robbed", and continued crime. So what good are they? Seems like the cameras are just a cover to limit crime, when really the government is using them to interfere more and profile peoples lives, shame.

They can use any excuse to do this, a popular one is the terrorism act, that means they only need to think you’re a terrorist & yet you’re an innocent individual. I can without a shadow of a doubt state this, if the police have it in for you, for whatever reason, they will abuse these laws to commit the worse crimes against someone they dislike.

When a government becomes to intrusive and oppressive on the people it is the right of the people to overthrow that government and replace it with a Constitution obeying government.

1:03 to 1:14 are PIR devices to control the traffic lights but that's just being picky. CCTV doesn't bother me because if it is ever used to control or monitor me to an extent that it interferes with my liberty my trusty air rifle, a baseball cap and scarf combined with a good pair of running shoes provides an excellent counter measure.

This is nothing, your television,computer and telephone are all surveilance devices and you are being watched in your home and personal life. Without your informed consent your Fouth Ammendment Right to Privacy has been taken away. The Patriot Act is grants the Corporations/Government the authority to enter your home at any time without telling you. Secretly without your informed consent surveilance technology has been intergrated into the electronic devices you purchase and use everyday.

I think the real question about CCTV is "Why would I care?" Why would I care about cameras following me? The only real information that CCTV gives to the government is statistical data on population movements. Why would they government focus their attention on you and not the other 70 million people? What makes you important? (Not you personally) As far as I'm aware, Police CCTV cameras are not allowed in residential areas unless there is high crime rate. If I were you, I'd talk to your council

It didn't work for the london bombings, we (the public) was only given shady looking still shots that leave more questions than answers, also most cameras didn't even work, or were broken that day, or were being serviced or failed or something.

I don't see a problem with CCTV in public areas. Of course, surveillance of your own property by others is inexcusable but CCTV is mainly for public and business surveillance. CCTV is for your own good, it is for public safety, if someone is kidnapped in a town centre, police can be dispatched or if someone commits a crime, the perpetrators can be identified.

so there are no positives in this scheme for the British people, just negatives. After world war 2 Winston Churchill did away with the notion of ID papers for all citizens, and implemented a free constitution, all aimed at preventing government fascism to prevent a Nazi style dictatorship ever happening in Britain. Lets hope we don't go back to such times,only reason i see for this scheme is to reduce British freedoms by increasing state control over the British people. That's facism in my book
frazzlea 3 years ago
information that could well be erroneous. The ID card will become the gold standard of identity in Britain, which will in turn lead to an over reliance of trust in the card by police, government agencies, banks, air port security etc and this trust will mean less checks are done. The airline industry opposed the introduction of ID cards to their workers, saying it would lead to less stringent checks on those they employ which would actually increase the risk of terrorism.
frazzlea 3 years ago
then there's the inevitible administrative cock ups in implementing the scheme,it will end up costing billions more than the billions they already think it will cost, they'll get peoples identities mixed up through imcompetance,and they're bound to get some people's details wrong or enter them incorrectly, all leading to false arrests by the police, mistaken identity, cloned cards to steal your identity, refused credit from banks, refused a job etc, all because of the information on the ID card
frazzlea 3 years ago
This has been flagged as spam show
i agree! ID cards...Apart from them being pointless and not any use in tackling crime, fraud, or terrorism, they're going to cost billions, it's more big brother state control, the technology will be figured out by criminals and they'll be making fake ID cards for terrorists and other criminals making us less safe and more open to identity fraud, and our personal private details, fingeprints and iris scans will be lost by the government, stolen, or sold to private businesses without our say so.

The person who watches the cctv cameras where you live is a licenced oparative. Who have to under go police checks,complete courses. You can not obtain a licence without going on the course. It is also illegal to observe member of the public via cctv without a licence. Also the cctv installers would have programmed privacy screens over the windows these are big black squares making it impossible to look in. Also the system will be registered with the data commisioner allowing you subject access

Maybe nobody wants to be filmed walking into a pub called Fighting Cocks...they might be afraid of getting their Peta Membership revoked....but this really brings up a valid point. The reason many people are paranoid of the CCTV, is because there are radical fringe groups like PETA that out there that would insist on the information being available via the Freedom of Information Act, so they can out people as being anti-animal or otherwise use the info for political gains. jst a thought.--cb80

If you install a cctv camera in your home internal or external here in the UK then under section 36 of the data protection act you are exempt from compliance. So the system does not have to be registered with the information commisioners office. Anyone caught on camera does not have the statutory right to access the recorded images. However if it is in a public place the system has to be registered with the ICO to comply with the data protection act. This allows you statutory access to images

THE full extent of Britain's violent crime epidemic, which yesterday claimed the life of another teenager, is revealed in shocking new figures that show the number of street robberies involving knives has more than doubled in two years.
MattScottUK 3 years ago
Attacks in which a knife was used in a successful mugging have soared, from 25,500 in 2005 to 64,000 in the year to April 2007. The figures mean that each day last year saw, on average, 175 robberies at knife-point in England and Wales -- up from 110 the year before and from 69 in 2004-5.
MattScottUK 3 years ago
Statistics for the UK show that knife crime, muggings, violence against a person, street crime etc. has increased steadily year on year, especially since 2003. Women surveyed have expressed their concern and many take higher levels of precautions when out late ie. organising taxi cabs home, staying with groups of friends - keeping an eye on drinks. Women are having to become more alert and responsible for their safety.

Who knows. As a matter of fact its close to that now. Consider how some crimes are just, strangely solved, when no witnesses were about, and up until a point noone knew anything... Then suddenly theres a 'forensic breakthrough' or something and suddenly they can point to a specific person at an exact location... Just a thought...

My questions are; When did we give our privacy up? who voted for my privacy to be violated? where was the meeting held? who decides these things? It's been said - for evil to succeed is for good to do nothing... is this a sign of it? Is it going to get worse? anyone?

b) They have Geostationary, satellites fitted with super-telephoto lensed infra-red cameras (Heat vision) So if they wanted to, they could lock in my location and watch me any time they wanted...Same goes for the rest of you.

anything your psychologist may have found out, all the countries youve visited, They have endless data on which they can look into, does this not make anyone feel the least bit violated? The least bit watched? Sure, I would argue against most conspiricers, and say that no, there isnt a camera set into my mirror, they dont watch me sleep. But consider the fact that a) They know pretty much all there is no know about me, and

how many people are in your family, your birth names, when you were born, when you die, all the medical treatment youve ever had, all dental, any condition you may or may have suffered,

It's quite hard to accept, hence why most people live blindly to this, but once you think about it, You realise just how much they know about you. Your adress, your car, its liscence plate number, if you have a TV, when that TV is turned on, what channels you watch,

Every picture your computer screen ever sees on a website, every single website you even visit, the things you may say or the videos you upload, the music you listen to, Even the reply im writing right now is being constantly monitored by computers and recorded into an ever-expanding database, And more government officials than your prefer to realise, can access all this data at the click of a button.

Call me a conspiricy theorist if you like, but its the cold hard truth. Every search you type into google, whether or not you click search, or just delete your phrase before you search it, is recorded.

In response to some of the other posters further down, You cannot do anything, anywhere without the government knowing.

Very disturbing, on their passports have they changed it from "citizen" to "suspect"
The people of the UK need to re-assess their role, are they a free people, with autonomy and self respect? or are they sheep who are monitored "for their protection" by a BIg Brother Government? sadly it appears the latter.

Those cameras in the bubble and computerised and black out at certian locations, like windows. so everytime the camera rotates over the co-ordinates over the window it blacks it out. That's why they are the cameras used in most town centres.

Have we ever thought about this technology? The one we are using right here? people are telling on themselves every day, The govt doesn't really have to video us, were doing it for them! They know everything about us, because were telling them right here on youtube! They know our political views, our religious views,what our homes look like, what we own, what we do for a living, what we made for dinner last night. Think about it!

They're getting us used to haveing cameras trained on us, by first introducing them at traffic intersections, next in shopping malls for 'security', and next was for public safety 'downtown'. Then they get to be more and more and more until we will be just like Britain.

force upon children to feed their glutony? theres a human behind the screen so wave at them, like me and my friend did while drinking cider out of an smashed guiness glass i found in Camelon at 5 am in the town centre crying with laughter at how easy life is when they try to hold us doon.

you can block cctv with laser pens, you can *double* lasers quartz crystals, you can plant quick growing vines witch grow and block them, most evidence collected by cctv cameras isnt admissable in court, do the signals from cctv get split at nodes? isnt every money hungry fool looking for the lastest trend to exploit and

Yeah, I'm really surprised the Brits let that happen. I'm very disappointed in them. I'm even more disappointed that they dont do anything about it. Very complacent society lulled into sleep. Good luck with that.

At the moment a lot of caeras were installed in germany too and in my opinion it it a huge problem. People will to change their behaviour because of the cameras, doesn´t matter if they have done something wrong or not. This is a neagtiv influence to the freedom for a not prooven security aspect.
Also we in germany have bad memorys of total controle system in 1935 and in GDR...

The minute you step onto the street, you give up your privacy. As long as it's not in my bathroom I wouldn't care so much.
I hear about kids being abducted off streets and so on and they don't have a lead, this is one good way to get one. So in that sense it's a pretty good security tactic. Anyways, yea it's a little eerie to think about who's looking, but then again, you can't be alert of who's looking at you all the time when you're shopping, or at a resturaunt, or walking in the park, etc.

Ineresting view point, i hear a lot of people say this, i've always held the belief that Privacy is grounded in the person not some narrow designated spacial area, think about it,
TyrannythroughArms 4 years ago
I have mixed feelings about this. On the one hand I probably would be a bit concerned about cameras being around me all day on the street. Then again it would be nice to know that when I don't make it safely past a group of wannabe gangsters it can be brought to court on video. However, a society that is better policed and more civilized in general would eliminate the idea of need for constant video surveillance.

Just wait until we all have a RF chip embedded in our necks like the Democrats want. Ron Paul is about the only one that voted AGAINST a national ID card, and is the only pro-freedom candidate in this election.

Most of the surveillance, not just video cameras but transaction monitoring, habit monitoring is done by private corporations. We don't really think about this do we? We worry about the government doing it but not corporations. That's what concerns me.

What a frightening thing that has happened! That's a difference between Europeans and us Americans I guess...We could never let that happen, it's a huge invasion of privacy and freedom. As RoopGB pointed out, areas with the cameras continue to have "cars getting broken into, people keep getting robbed", and continued crime. So what good are they? Seems like the cameras are just a cover to limit crime, when really the government is using them to interfere more and profile peoples lives, shame.
