Re: video cameras

Ok, there are tons of video cameras everywhere.  Could someone
explain to me why I should care about this?  "You're constantly
being recorded" is not, in and of itself, a reason to care.

Most of the cameras that Steve identified on his walk to class were
security cameras.  The purpose of the these cameras is to deter
crime ex ante and to help in the apprehension of criminals ex post.
 Since I am not a criminal, I don't know why I should think that
security cameras are bad.
