Big Brother’s Growing Up. Red Light Cameras Could Be Linked For Nationwide Surveillance.

The Newspaper.com reported that nation’s two largest red light camera vendors both have plans to turn their photo-ticketing cameras into a nationwide surveillance system. "We are moving into areas such as homeland security on a national level and on a local level," Redflex regional director Cherif Elsadek said. And in a proposal to the Arizona state police, ATS, the second-largest vendor, told the agency that their cameras could be integrated into a national vehicle tracking database. This is similar to the plan in the UK  that will utilize their average speed cameras to help police "keep tabs on criminals and political opponents."

    This has to stop somewhere, I am not living in the UK for a reason. The police state grows everyday, this really has to stop.
