CCTV is one of the most primitives uses video cameras are invented. People dreamt of monitoring a world, where crimes will always be brought to justice. As the technology now is plausible, critics are calling foul at the breach of privacy.
But really, are the critics really that logical? What "privacy" is so important in public places? What is so private that the public can see you do it, but not the police? A use of CCTVs can save lives, and as stated in the video, can be coupled with algorithms which pick up warnings.
Its ironic, to say the least, that the head of the free world, the US, is implementing things like this. This technology is no different then having officers everywhere in the city, minus the problems caused by bad officers.
CCTVs can be used for bad, but rarely, and really, what sort of true "bad" can it do? They are not hidden cameras.
