The nyc bomber posted on Facebook to trump that he had failed to protect the US. The bomber went on to fashion a pipe Bomb, that if It had worked, he would’ve caused a lot of damage. Instead he only caused damage to himself and very few people. This raises the question ok whether we should seriously start to monitor everyone like England does. They have a lot of cameras in every nook and cranny. Which means they have eyes all around the city. In the USA however, if they try and install cameras in every street, there will be problems, most relating to the constitution and right to privacy, and construction hurdles. But then It raises another qiestion about whether or not the government will be allowed to 100% minister what we lost, for the sake of national security. Meaning, the government will implant massive algorithms to detect specific keywords and flag the user. This has been exposed by Edward Snowden a couple years back. To this day we can not know if the government is till doing this.

Hi James,
I just saw this post on Facebook. You mention that if cameras were placed on every street this would interfere with the constitution and right to privacy, and construction hurdles. The following question arose: Does privacy matters more than protection?
Thoughts?
