and it occurred to me, what if I saw someone being mugged? I could call the police and tell them to just look at the webcam logs! So all these neat webcams in all the cities could help keep it safer. But then I was thinking, haven't police wanted cameras everywhere, and we didn't want to have them watching us? But here we're voluntarily putting webcams all over creation now because it's fun!
