  • Lmao. Completely contradicting the videos supposition

    ‘Indeed, because so many of these collisions occur at relatively low speeds’

    From your article. Coincidentally that is where I stopped watching to. First he cites elderly and drunkenness after showing off multiple news reports of elderly and drunk people (in front of drug stores and snack shops) then tries claiming its just speed. No these are incompetent drivers who should be reviewed after a certain age. The drunk stuff is already illegal so good luck with that. I would remind people that some dust crazy stupid shit on horses when drunk back in the day too. So just getting rid of cars isn’t going to stop it.

    No “we” all don’t. Ask anyone who works support how fucking stupid the general population is about shit they use daily. Let alone stuff they heard years/decades ago. Seriously. Just start asking people to point to “the computer” and see how many point at the monitor even when it’s clearly an 80” wall hung TV.

    Mass surveillance is absolutely natural. What do you think it was like for the last 10+ thousand years in villages and towns around the world. Everyone knew everyone, reputations and word of mouth was the currency of the millennia. Privacy as we know it has only exist for a very short period of time. The only reason we even got the privacy we had for a bit was because it was too much data and there were too many people for any one village to know everyone. Computers solved that. I don’t like the idea of cameras everywhere but as someone who’s been robbed repeatedly and watched others go through the same and with the utter failure that is our current legal system and our over reliance or for some twisted belief that human perception is somehow the end all be all of evidence or to determine the truth I welcome more public recording if it means I dont have to rely on some cop or other official to back or refute my testimony. I want a safe society not one where some random jackass can lose rheir mind and just blow off hundreds or more lives in a whim. There’s too many people now for the “it’s just a few people” argument. When you’re dealing with billions of individuals even a .00001% of fuckers is still a lot of fuckers. Come up with a way to stop them before hand without recording everyone and I’m down. Till then I’ll trust a video recording over a personal testimony any day of the week.
