I don't know. I'm not doing anything wrong, either, but I'm not sure I want it memorialized on videotape or digitized media. I have very mixed feelings over the implications in this article. On the one hand, you betcha I want to see the bad guys caught--on the other, there's this queasy feeling about so much spying. It might just be one of the costs of the war on terror, though.

People still have this unrealistic idea based on CSI. They really believe that stuff. Technology is not so great that it can do the things seen on TV. Heck, people leave fingerprints everywhere on CSI, and we KNOW that doesn't happen.

The same problem exists with medical teevee shows. It creates a very very unrealistic expectation among the sheeple.

I for one don't want to be spied on. How do you justify that kind of invasion of privacy of law abiding citizens with out being the KGB? Then you give the gubmint more lattitude to pass ridiculous laws to protect you from yourself.
