Do you think people are going to tolerate a camera on every street corner? People will be shooting those cameras in the dead of night when the camera density triples.
I think you are far underestimating what your average person will tolerate. They will apparently put up with a lot more than we have now. It's not even that big of a deal as long as the use of these systems is transparent and subject to oversight, not that I entirely trust anyone to be responsible with such power.
Perhaps where i live, In New York, they'll tolerate anything, even genocide I'd imagine.
Would this be tolerated in South Carolina?
Yes, of course. Even there people are looking to law enforcement to protect their property, all kinds of cool military grade shit is getting snapped up by even rural departments because people really will demand to trade their privacy for security.
