> Paris, NYC, SF, Tokyo have more cameras per sq. Km

You listed extremely dense cities. Of course they have more cameras per square.

This isn’t a narrative violation, it’s basic math.

I think its highly relevant when we have people pushing the faulty logic narrative that the UK is China and using CCTV as a measurement for their case.

UK bad because online safety rules, let's ignore US states that already do this.

> Don't mind what we are doing, the UK is worse.

Not defending the UK, but they aren't the first and you dont get the same inflammatory racist language with other countries.
