That's a broad assertion about a whole country. Plenty of us don't want any large institutions with unchecked surveillance power.

Up to a point you can choose not to patronize such places, but where do we draw the line? I'm curious as to any legal arguments other than "You don't have a right to privacy in public." You can't opt out of society.

I agree it sucks,but this is everywhere and trivial to implement . These cameras were already in the airports and borders under obama
