Are Law Enforcement Cameras an Invasion of Privacy

Public Security Cameras and Privacy Introduction Some refer to law enforcement cameras as a valuable tool in crime reduction while others consider it as an invasion of their privacy. Either way, they may be right. In general terms, Hyatt (46) describes law enforcement cameras as tiny cameras that police officers clip on their uniforms or place on the street strategically to record both video and audio as they go about their daily duties. Indeed, the last decade has seen a very rapid adoption of this technology. By 2007, London had already installed more than 4 million cameras in the streets. This technology has good results and side effects just like any other technology.
