security. This should be of interest to /. readers since it's a
supposedly largest surveillance network ever. Thousands of cameras
are combined with software (AI agents?) to look for anomalies. Also
words are parsed (scan equivalent to OCR). I understand the idea
that if you're in public expect no privacy, but even CNN says:
'Although the state's right to take all necessary measures that it
deems necessary is recognized, there is fear that these measures
will have a negative impact on basic human rights.'"
