Eyes Everywhere.

Most of us, most of the time, don’t ever think about just how many security cameras there are on us all the time. We go into stores…we’re seen. Go into a bank, have your picture taken. Go through a toll booth…have your car and movements tracked. It’s enough to have a paranoid person get downright…jumpy.
Most people would see that as a invasion of privacy…but I rather like the fact that there are so MANY cameras taking so MANY pictures. It’s easier to hide in a crowd of people. When you’re just one more face in a sea of faces, you’re seen… but still invisible. Believe me, I’ve been invisible for enough of my life, for example, in high school, or more lately when I use my wheel chair, people can look right through you in real life. With so many cameras and so many pictures, who has time to look at them all?
Then, there are the lucky “catches”, like the two scuzzballs who robbed me–right after Walgreens had put in a brand new sharp image catcher…well. It caught them okay too. The other lucky catch are the views of the plane that came down in New York. The best pictures they have of right before the crash came from security cameras on the warehouse docks.
