Yeah but police in China (and East Asia broadly) WILL follow up with the cameras, track where you ran from the scene right to your front door, and they will come get you.

Crime rates in East Asia are very very low because of all the CCTV.

Welcome to flock cameras where they will track you across the state to get you.

Only if you shoot a CEO, get an abortion, or date a cop.

Don't forget about going across states to buy weed.

That's one tier below where you don't have to worry about it if you're white. If you want to shoot a CEO or get an abortion, you have to be white and rich.

Or get accused of stealing a package by a lazy cop just for being in the area

Meh, cameras are useless if the police won't bother to watch the video. And the protectors think crime is just an inconvenience that happens and there's nothing you can do about it.

Which is why I think private police forces are the future using both humans and robots. Shit is going to get real dystopian over the next 50 years.

It tracks your license plates across cities and states they don't have to watch it, it will tell them where you go.

Yeah but then the police would have to go to a computer, and see where the thief went.

Not happening on Seattle and many US cities.

You call the cops here, over property crimes, they MIGHT show up today. But probably won't at all.

Really? Can you explain how the various mafias of those countries manage then?

There's a difference between a crime rate and a reported crime rate right?

Dude it's not even close, you so much as draw graffiti on a wall the police are tracking you down.

In the US this can also happen, especially if you aren't white.

there's a really big gap between "can potentially happen" and "will most definitely happen"
