All those closed-circuit cameras around town. They always claim they’ll be used for some wonderful purpose, like to stop violent crime. They claim they will never be used for anything else. But you ought to know by now, once something gets put in place, it’s not only next to impossible to remove but they will find other things to use it for.

And such is the case in Nice, France. The CCTV was to only be used for violent crimes, but now parking offenses will be handed out based upon video surveillance.

So… how far are you willing to slide down?
