No, these aren’t new. What is new is that the eye is the sky has ears. It can detect gun shots, pivot to face the direction of the sound, videotape the offender and then call 911. Which, of course, may or may not be working.

“It was terribly dangerous to let your thoughts wander when you were in any public place or within range of a telescreen. The smallest thing could give you away. A nervous tic, an unconscious look of anxiety, a habit of muttering to yourself

    Where is that camera located?

    Dunno where that one is, but I know there’s one on Morse Ave., just west of the Red Line CTA station. You can see it from the train.

    you do realize those cameras are only in the like ghetto parts of chicago, right? its actually a pretty good idea to have those cameras in place… it helps the police force fight a large amount of crime, and prevent a lot of it from occuring in the first place

    Uhmm I have mixed feelings on this, being a Chicagoan who has had gun battles occur on my street before. If they use it to give people parking tickets they suck. If it busts people shooting up the street for the right to smell smack and crack it could help. I have to wonder with the 4th of July festivities, did they have to turn the gun detection thingy off? People shoot off about 10 million fireworks, some that sound like small bombs.

    Being observed by police, whether by camera or in person, is only going to suck if you are doing something wrong. Here’s a tip… DON’T BREAK THE LAW. Problem solved.
