Q: Are the security cameras that now monitor us in public places a good thing or a bad thing? Asked at various public gatherings in Reporter Newspapers communities.

“I think they can be both. I think they can be great for deterring crime and also catching criminals after the fact. At the same time, I think they can lead to paranoia, and they can make people act differently than they normally would, like by slamming on their brakes at red lights out of fear of a ticket.”

“I like it for security. I don’t personally have anything to hide. I have three kids and I like as much security as is available.”

“As you can see, I’m incognito…. I guess, in the long run, it’s a good thing. It does make people take stock. I guess it keeps the evil-doers from contemplating evil.”
