So I was in the 5 train this morning, and in that one subway car I see a few long white on red stickers that say "all activities on this car may be recorded" I didn't go too far through the train, but I did notice the same sticker in another car.
On a quick look around, I didn't show any cameras, but pinhole cameras would be easy to hide. I would have put them in the far corners of the car somewhere near the top, and you'd probably be able to get a good look from the round, but flat air conditioner vents, or on the glass covered displays that state the train destination, but I didn't see cameras or any obvious smoked glass, or holes. (My criterial being, "Where would I put cameras so I would limit the number to one or two per car to keep it cheap, and still be able to see the whole car?") Further, I didn't notice any new cables going around, and you'd probably need lots of them to be able to record video from each car, or a VCR in each car somewhere... I guess the next time I'm on one of those trains, I'll try to be where the conductor is and get a peek inside their cabin... This is nothing earth shattering as there were cameras in the subway system for years now, just not on the actual trains. Still the rachet does tighten more and more.. Anyone know if these are official, or just someone's idea of a joke? See them on any other subway lines? ----------------------Kaos-Keraunos-Kybernetos--------------------------- + ^ + :Surveillance cameras|Passwords are like underwear.
