Privacy International defines a surveillance state which ‘collects information on everyone without regard to innocence or guilt’ The majority of security cameras in the USA are consumer-owned. The rapid installation of over 85 million security cameras has been fueled by partnerships between the public and private sectors, namely police agencies and data-hungry tech giants. With police and Big Tech in control of our security camera infrastructure, new threats to our civil liberties are now just a “flip of a switch” away.
