Citizens Spy On Big Brother
An anonymous reader writes "Citizens of the world are striking back at 24/7 state surveillance by pulling out their cameraphones and filming inept officials, deadly healthcare lapses and thuggish cops. So-called Sous-veillance is seeing more and more people posting damning footage of official misdemenours to sites such as YouTube to shame them into action." I wonder what happens if you inform a cop that you are recording him when he pulls you over.
At what point do we acknowledge that the police are nothing more than organized, armed criminals, and start dealing with them as such?

Congratulations, I couldn't have worded this to make it sound more like we're actually living in a futuristic dystopian society in which the whole world (also known by the aliens as "the USA") is oppressed by a tyrannic regime out of control that puts cameras in your toilets.
I too love to make reality sound like an apocalyptic fantasy, but I could use keeping that shit off the summary. Cue all the "but the government already listens to all your phone calls" replies.
You just got troll'd!
That's a completely bullshit statement. Don't paint with a broad brush, damnit! Not ALL cops are violent assholes, but if we took your statement to heart then they would eventually all be forced into ACTING like violent assholes.
What is the world coming to when our hardworking police men and women can't beat up innocent civilians and charge them with assault without the fear of some scumbag with a camera letting the whole world know the truth?

I thought the guy was puling a gun on me, so i blocked his arm, i apologize that it was a camera instead and it hit the ground and shattered. *case dismissed*
Shouldn't have pulled out a 'questionable' object on a cop during an incident. Feel lucky they don't shoot you instead.

I've never been to a protest rally in this country (your pitiful causes are a joke to anyone with experience of real oppression), and I'm not into watching other people engage in sports. Clubs and concerts — sure, but I never felt anxious or angry after leaving one. Your life must be really sad, Panza — why do you even attend such public entertainment events, if those feelings (along with the police beating) is what they end meaning to you?
I asked you for evidence and instead you chose to simply claim, that you have it... Khmm — not very convincing. The burden of proof remains on you.
In Soviet Washington the swamp drains you.
Shit, after reading articles this this on slashdot, I wouldn't want to be a cop either. Like I'd want to take nonstop shit from basement dwellers calling me a fascist.
Whether she goes back to him or not, she is still a victim asshole. Why don't you take a few minutes, turn off your Ann Coutler podcast, and learn some the psychology abuse victims suffer from.
The laws are corrupt and evil. The cops know this better than most. Yet, they continue to be cops. Therefore, every cop is a bad person. Not a bad officer. A bad person.

You do? Well, if I was that cop and came over such a jerk with an attitude, I would proceed and give you a ticket (instead of just a warning as I had originally planned). Have a good day, punk.

Wow. Amazing. You pull out ONE video that proves that in one case the Police didn't harass a person taking video. Stupendous. Now that proves all kinds of thinks. Shoot, from that one video I can prove God Doesn't Exist, no police officers are corrupt, no people are ever murdered, disease doesn't exist, and Black is White. Wait! What's That! Is that a Zebra??? ------------nosignal
