The CCTV Camera that Can “Predict Crime”
December 3, 2008 by Nick
In yet another blow to civil liberties in the UK, new CCTV cameras that can “predict” crime are set to be introduced to Britain next year.
The cameras alert public servants our ruling overlords to heinous crimes, such as, “walking slowly”.
Computers will be programmed to analyse movements of car and people and send out an alarm to a camera operator if it deems the movements of people “unusual”.
Civil rights campaign group Liberty was sceptical of how effective the cameras would actually be. A spokesman said: ‘Bringing expensive Hollywood sci-fi to our car parks will never be as effective as having police on the street leading the fight against crime.’
Here at the Daily Dust we’ve been previously reported on MPs being sent Orwell’s 1984 book and the proposed plan to need a passport in order to buy a mobile phone. Looks like this latest CCTV introduction will mean we are a step closer to the Panopitcon.
