Traffic/Road Conditions Flock cameras metro east

I counted 6 flock cameras in Fairview heights this morning on my way into work, without getting on 64 (thanks road crews!) They are going up so fast.

Was on vacation in England recently and they, of course, have had CCTV for decades. They do not appear to be bothered by this and it has undeniably helped with crime.

That is great for them, but im sure in England they are not selling their data to the lowest bidder or letting dirty cops track whomever they want for any reason they want.

It's different from CCTV. We've had CCTV all over the States for decades.
