Have we created our new leader?
Then I presume that you would be in favor of 100% continuous monitoring of everyone in America by CCTV, as if the police only had to push buttons to switch cameras, that would be the ultimate productivity increase. You’d support that, right? That’s the logical ultimate extension of your argument.
I am not necessarily in favor but rather accept the reality.
We already the have the surveillance by satellites. It is of course different but very similar and the precedent holds.
In so far as the cameras are concerned, they operate by wifi and can be called up as needed. I have seen such a bank as you describe in industrial and university installations.
They can be of use however. Last winter I needed to drive 150 miles north on I 81 the morning after a snow storm. When I went on the internet I found a site where I could see the roads from the cameras I had been criticizing and found it to have been cleared. I had no idea..... I thought they were for catching crooks.i
With all due respect, you can take that statist bullsh*t to some other country. If you want to live in an Orwellian surveillance state, you are free to move to the UK and enjoy it today. Leave the rest of us the hell alone!
You apparently can’t read very well.
The name was MurryMom.
I read it just fine. You said you weren’t “necessarily” in favor, implying that you perhaps agree with some of it, and then continued on to state that you simply accept the situation. I imagine that in Germany in the Forties you would have looked the other way at the boxcars rolling through your village and said, “Well, I don’t necessarily approve of the situation but I accept it.”
I guess you are right newbie
