RE: Mass Camera Surveillance Can Take Down Statism - NUTS! CRAZY! Or is it?
I absolutely LOVE this idea. I've thought of it many years in the past.
The footage needs to be open access, this is essential. Need it run efficiently so everyone can view without bandwidth limitations. Private companies would crop up to secure us or review footage; even Volunteers in different communities could review or take donations or pay to solve crimes and/or public issues that can be viewed/reviewed on camera archived footage.
It's vital to limit this to public spaces however; though It would be beneficial for any private business to also voluntarily provide their footage to maintain a consistent stream of things happening (for example think of criminals ducking into private businesses so their camera trail goes dead; especially malls where there would be multiple entries and exit points)
Yeah. It could also be a network of nodes, where each person who has video set up can set access to feeds, on request when there is a crime, or if you join this network, a crime report in an area will automatically allow access to a certain time period of video from all cameras in that area that are part of the crime area. This as an option for those who don't support the mass access to anyone to spy on people. Maybe there would be issues with validating the crime in order to open access to the video. Thanks for the feedback.
Even better. Decentralized and desperate individual ownership but as a whole contributing to the pool of footage.
Now I'm wondering, this just popped in my head, as technology improves, how hard it could be at some point int he future to distinguish false or artificially created or altered videos because computer generated graphics are only going to become more realistic and harder to distinguish from the real live action recordings.
Yeah, have you seen the imitation technology that can mimic your face/mouth onto Obama or anyone, and it looks like they are talking?
