minus-squareAceticon@lemmy.dbzer0.comlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·4 months agoCameras specifically to catch people running red-lights will only take a photo when a car crosses a red light rather than run continuously. They’ll only have you “under surveillance” if and when you’re breaking the law by running a red light. So if you’re so worried about “surveillance” from those cameras, don’t run red-lights.
minus-squaredeathbird@mander.xyzlinkfedilinkarrow-up0·4 months agoThere are other, newer cameras like those from Flock that run and check continuously. I prefer the old-school ones you’re talking about.
minus-squarekuhli@lemmy.dbzer0.comlinkfedilinkarrow-up0·4 months agoYeah, the old ones are fine, but they’re just turning into mass surveillance tools now
