Citizens Spy On Big Brother

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the they-love-that dept.

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.

    I wonder what happens if you inform a cop that you are recording him when he pulls you over.

    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.
