Back when the The Wall was still up, I took a tour of East Berlin when I was stationed in Frankfurt. After seeing all the cameras on top of the buildings "spying" on the populace, I was glad they didn't have THAT sort of thing in the USA.

Oh, how times have changed. Now there are cameras everywhere, and I would hazard to guess that we are subject to having a video shot of us more often than our former communist counterparts were.
