Just watched that program on bbc1 at 9pm about cctv, it was saying that britain is the most watched country in the world!. What do you think about cctv? I was shocked to see how much we were being watched. Is it a good thing are do you think we are being watched to much!! My own personal opinion is that we are watched to much!


sooner or later they a probably going to watch us in our own homes if they don,t already:confused:


BEWARE BIG BROTHER IS WATCHING YOU!!!!!:D:confused::D
 
This doesn't bother me. I don't break the law therefor I don't care if they watch me. Actually I think I would feel safer walking on my own knowing the cctv are watching me than being alone out there. Maybe it will deter the criminals of this country too.....although I doubt that, they don't seem to give a toss.
 
I have it all round me at work and you get used to it. As slinks says if you are doing nothing wrong you should have no fear. They could pick up footage of a serious crime and help convict the perp. There will be cameras everywere soon and not were you expect them.
 
watched it meself n agree with slinks, dont bother me, not convinced it deters scumbags, but it can sure as hell be effective in detecting some.
 
cctv is a good thing only problem is cps wont use it as evedince if it is not full facial .it also as to be top quality picture even if you can tell who the person is.i had a incident outside pub caught on cctv even the police women new who it was on the recording but cps would not prosecute.
 
An hour after the programme about CCTV, there was a programme on ITV about how publishing photographs in the press, taken from close circuit tv, allowed the police to capture David Coleman, the London nail bomber.
 
You think that was bad,i once went with Roy and Less to a Data centre in Manchester as Roy was thinking of moving his servers there and we went for a look round and they has CCTV every 3 feet inside and out in one Data room where the servers where there was 24 cameras in a room .
 
:Banane37: hello there , well i my self think its a good thing because to have cctv about in the right place,s they use,t to be a lot of fighting and window,s getting broken but they have put cctv were i live and things as gone quite a bit now but for how long god only knowe,s
 
CCTV can also prove your innocence as well, I'm all for it. However it didn't stop the little gits smash up the crib in ossy at xmas and that was just 50 feet away.

a company I once worked for caught a guy on CCTV shoplifting, they knew the guy and knew he was 'dangerous' so did not approach him. Although 6 people watched him pick up a petrol saw (worth £600) and walk out with it, although the camera clearly showed him and clearly showed him go to the door - it didn't show him go through the door.

The poilice didn't even talk to him.
 
I for one think there should be more CCTV cameras and also a vehicle check system in all places like the one in London. Amazing thing!

If your not doing anything wrong, you have nothing to worry about. You even have to have a good reason to watch someone these days so if they watch you, they better come up with a good explanation as to why otherwise they can end up in prison.

I work with CCTV myself, and the Data Protection and Privacy Law you need to learn for one is bad enough..... You have to make a note of all camera movements and faults and people your watching and why... But that's public space CCTV, in a store or private property it's different.
 
watched that program last night, loved the one with the speakers so you can tell the public off!!

i would love to do that job, id be a right sarky cow:D

We have cctv AND the speakers outside work....ooo what fun has been had with that :D ;)
 
It doesn't bother me, I dont think it deters the criminals because when they're caught they are let off lightly.
 
does no-one think though it invades your own personal space?
The thought of people watching you going about your daily routine!
