I came across this article on the BBC today and whilst the use of face recognition cameras is a bit of an invasion of privacy at the same time I find the response from "big brother watch" a bit bizarre as surly any help the police get in capturing and removing criminals from the streets should be welcomed not frowned upon.

What do others think ?

I don't have any problem with it at all.

I might do if I saw/read any evidence of false matches.

    • Is there some easy way of finding out how much Gift Aid the hospice shop has  made from my donations? I have emails from Oxfam, but nothing from St Christopher's,  even though I have donated more to them! I know I could ask in the shop, but I imagine the Gift Aid admin is run from elsewhere.
    • I’ve reported the water leak outside 36/38 Dunstans Road to Thames Water and Southwark Council yet again this morning.   This has been going on for about 18 months now. This is really dangerous when it freezes over like today, causing me (and maybe others) to come off my bike last year in front of oncoming traffic.  Does anybody know what’s going on? Thank you.
    • You may just as well ask why mention their age, or their sex, or that there were two of them.  The OP was giving a general description.
    • Why the description of their skin tone? It’s not as if there are likely to be more than one set of two men over the age of 60 playing noughties pop music with accompanying light display of a night on the Rye.
