That is funny because you think that police won't protect they're own. How many times has unjustified violence been cough on camera and how many times has person responsible seen any real consequences? We got unarmed people being shot eight f*king times and no one was even arrested. Rules don't apply to everyone, you somehow seem to miss that and people are just people, they have friends and the more money they have, the more influence they have. How about all those times when there was real, concrete evidence against someone and nothing was done? Like, market crash of 2008? Didn't even need cameras, just regular old documents and no one responsible was arrested.

Let me give you an example - One police officer saw another officer breaking the law, she reported it, after threats and being transferred she saw that her personal information had been accessed more than 200 times by other officers, which was illegal, she failed complaints and it did nothing. This sh*t has happened countless times against people who were honest and tried to fight corruption or government misusing power, journalists, cops, regular people who didn't ask for any of this to happen.

Pro-surveillance is a joke, it literally is a f*king joke. You are looking at this like some kind of perfect scenario where there are no errors, where information is never misused, where no one is corruption, everyone is equal. This is not what reality is like, it will never be like that, people do dumb stuff all the time, you mean to tell me that you have never broken the law in all your life? Never drunk under age or smoked, never broke speed limit, never got angry, never did anything that you wish people would forget about and it wasn't cough on camera? Never did anything that other people could use against you? Just get on the wrong side of someone more powerful then you then you will see what that surveillance does for you then, they can watch you but you can't watch them, is that equality?

And if police and NSA has access to that kind of information with little tinkering so will everyone else when it floods the internet after a leak.
