notjustgraphics,
I want to say something about those "more and more stories", that can have more than one reason. One of them might be the increased attention from the media, as a result of the whole privacy thing. Then it could be so that there are more and more perverts. And last but not least, it is also possible that more and more perverts are getting caught by the law enforcement.
I think that if you make an equation out of it, with the number of perverts divided by the total number of people (in one neighbourhood, to keep things simple) that you will see that not 1 on 5 of the people has bad intentions, or is an pervert. So I think that if you arrest people because this pervert thing, that there should at least be one more reason for the arrest.
I think that privacy should never come above freedom. Because when I country starts to take freedom, so that it can give privacy than that country has a problem. Because than that country can easily become a police state like thing, in order to protect the privacy of course. And the inhabitants of that country must have something to hide, why else want to give in freedom for privacy?
And security cameras, well to much is to much...
Just my 2 cents. And I want my change.
