BAE has developed an airborne spy master...



Persistent surveillance.

Orwell would be proud.

The tech is there.  The only thing left is to determine if the will to use it (and deal with the consequences) exists.

War time use?  I'm ok with it.  Border security?  Yes!  Law enforcement?  Wow.  Its legal (no one has an expectation of privacy once they walk out the door)...but it sure seems....wrong.

Tech vs. Civil liberties is going to come to a head real soon.

    So... law enforcement... Say we put IR cameras... Can we point them sidewise?

    To look into alleys, of course, not into that cute chick's place up Diagon alley.

    Take care.
