You wait, in five years, the technology is getting better, they’ll be cameras everyplace . . . whether you like it or not, Get used to it!'
I almost choked on my coffee this morning from laughing so hard, he stole my line, 'get used to it'.

Doesn't surprise me at all. I guess for privacy one will most likely have to move out of the city. The question is ... Who is watching BIG BROTHER?

Guess I'll have to remember to bring my fake moustache and porkpie hat whenever I go into the city now

If HE can have cameras everywhere, that had better mean WE can, too.

That's our job, too bad we have to waste legislative time on something that is perfectly legal in the first place.

Up to no good eh? ;-) I like Bloomberg, he's always good for a laugh especially when it comes to guns or soda-pop, but I actually agree with the use of cameras in public areas by the police, and what's good for the goose is good for the gander!

Chief McManus says, "There are no privacy issues here. Absolutely zero. People have no expectation of privacy when in a public place."
Since SAT is a city-owned facility and open to the public, his statement trumps some of the rules on photography at the airport.

You should have a NYCAviation news conference from that infamous parking garage or EWR, "You wait, NYCAviation is getting bigger and better, there will be cameras and spotters at all airports, get used to it!" :cool:

I have really restricted using the Verrazano in the past couple of years since the tolls went through the roof, but the few times I have used it I've held my camera up as I cross over. I just can't stand those "No photo or video allowed" signs as you get ready to cross.
