CCS (Stars Of CCTV)

Within the last few decades more and more CCTV cameras are being installed. Due to the increase in crime and the need to feel secure, serveilance has been more and more demanding. If you walk through a city, you will be captured on many CCTV cameras. If you walk into shops or banks there are many cameras that provide security. Your movements can even be tracked on your mobile phone. Mobile phones are now able to record and play videos. The quality isn’t very good but it allows you to show the world something you have made. There are many ways to upload images and videos to websites for people to view and rate: • YouTube allows anyone to watch and share original videos online • Flickr allows you to upload and share your photos online either by sending them over the web or via camera phone • GoogleVideo – which allows you to upload video, provided you own the necessary rights. The television programme 'Big Brother' has about 50 different CCTV cameras in a house with 12 different people tracking their every move. It is a perfect example of what society is like today. The goverment want to know what we are doing all the time and make sure we are not breaking the law.
