Three-dimensional CCTV pictures would be coupled with records of people’s mobile phones and even their travel cards to get details of their movements and habits. Facial recognition systems to help track individuals’ movements are also being considered."
And UK parents want some perv behind a government camera looking through their children's clothes because....?
