Re the cameras in the UK.
I am astounded that they cost £3000 each. Why not use £20 Taiwanland CCD cameras with zoom function & build them into street lights? The data can be carried by the mains. Put them everywhere. Then grant unlimited public access to all cameras via the web.
This way the Public is Big Brother, & recent TV show indicates that the public love it.
The Police get far less work.
Criminals get caught.
The scheme costs peanuts.
