When Surveillance Cameras Talk
Big Brother is not only watching you; in Barking and Dagenham, Big Brother wants a word. The disembodied voices of authority offering advice and warnings that now issue as if from thin air in the hardscrabble east London borough are, in fact, talking CCTV cameras — the latest high-tech weapon in the war on littering, graffiti, vandalism and other antisocial behavior. Sixteen of the borough's 84 surveillance cameras have been wired for sound, making London's first video monitoring network with a broadcasting capacity. A second borough, Southwark, will soon adopt the same system.
(...)
Liberty, a civil liberties group, conservatively estimates there are 4.2 million CCTV cameras currently in operation in the UK, one for every 14 residents. Anyone living or working in London will likely be captured on camera 300 times a day.
(...)
The system can also operate live, in real time. CCTV operators, keeping a vigilant eye on a bank of 39 monitors in their windowless office, can ad lib broadcasts, asking people, for instance, to pick up the litter they've just dropped, or warning them that their behavior's unacceptable.

Portanto, não só és fotografado, como estás a ser vigiado por operadores humanos em tempo real, que te avisam com som se estás a praticar um
acto anti-social.
Depois, podemos juntar isso a esta notícia e ficamos com um quadro bonito:

The neo-Nazi surge: Right-wing parties sweep to power in the European Parliament as voter turnout plummets to record low
Last updated at 3:08 PM on 11th June 2009
Germany's main neo-Nazi party has made sweeping gains in local elections in a poll which puts extremists into town halls and council chambers across the country.
Results of weekend local elections mirror the successes of far-right parties across the Continent in the elections for the EU parliament.
Britain's BNP won two seats, a Eurosceptic and anti-foreigner party in the Netherlands won four seats, and there were gains too for extremists in Italy, Romania, Denmark, Slovakia, Finland and Hungary.
