A network of “shared access” surveillance cameras with facial recognition capability is on the way amid well-founded privacy concerns. Here comes the Police State: Big Brother is watching you, and so are all his mates!
From Radio New Zealand:
.”..Any new cameras installed in Auckland will have automated processing abilities, including facial recognition, and are not merely passive video cameras recording footage that goes to a server for manual inspection. The older Auckland Council cameras are a passive type.
A Memorandum of Understanding with police did not mention facial recognition, and the cameras would not be used for this, Mr Creighton said.
The police currently have real-time access to AT’s system; this project will broaden that so they have access to all of the agencies’ feeds from, eventually, another 3000 to 4000 cameras.
Computer vision specialist Andrew Chen said most CCTV use in various countries has to-date been benign.
But he warned it was not just the technological advances, or the nature of the data gathered, but who gets to see the data, that must concern Aucklanders.
“The primary hazard that we’d be concerned about is the potential to combine this data with other data that these agencies would already have from previous interactions with the council or with police – cellphone data, banking data, et cetera,” Dr Chen said…”
Fuck me days we really are fucking doomed. New Zealanders need to face the FUCKED up GOVERNMENT about having 5G brought in.
Well, we’re doing our utmost, Tina. Trouble is, most folk don’t wake up until the system is in place. When the health issues start and the mass surveillance ramps up. Then it’s so much harder of get rid of.
Gosh what can we do. Do you think we can stop this coming into New Zealand.
Why has my comment come out in a line.
Your comment was published as received Tina. Let me know how you’d prefer it to be formatted and I’ll edit it for you.
There’s plenty you can do Tina. Here’s a good start:

This is far bigger than just facial recognition or big brother. Constant radiation means we can look forward to sick and sterile populations.
The Wifi radiation comes with or without cameras.
What pisses me off is that there is nothing to suggest these cameras help in the fight against crime. This is just so they can instate a PRC style social credit system for our ghastly socialist NWO.
I suppose burquas will become popular for those who value their privacy?
OTOH when the police was successfully catching car thieves by placing desirable cars with trackers in crime hot-spots our cretinous judges ruled it “entrapment”. Well … what deterrent is there then?
They certainly don’t stop murders taking place in full daylight on the streets in London.
They are for control and tracking. The symptom of a paranoid dystopia where no one is trusted by a government who see the world through a dark lens.
