To be in public is to be on camera, but most video footage is discarded, as only so much can be sorted and analyzed — until now. DARPA has created a technology that can index and analyze video in real-time, marking the end of anonymity in public places.
Beyond surveillance, this automatic video tech could make all uploaded video searchable, regardless of tags or descriptors.

Now, anything that happens in public will be public record.
In the not-so-distant future, it may be possible for anyone to Google your name and find... in addition to your Facebook page that photo of you that you did not want anyone to know about.

In the not so far future you will be able to go on line and it will be something like this'
You "I wonder where Bill Smith is right"
Computer " Enter full name and address or phone number mailing address"
You "Ok that is Bill G. Smith phone 1-555-1234
Computer "Tracking".....................OK, Bill G. Smith is a the Wal-Mart on second and main on aisle 6 buying cat food"
Any one will be able to track any one with just a few clicks of the key board. No more hiding for the bill collectors.
Bill collector="If you can buy cat food you can pay your bills"
No more keeping secrets from the landlord
Landlord="You know having a cat is forbidden in your rental statement, git rid of it or move out"
No more hiding from the pest that always wants you to some something for them for free.
Pest (calling on cell phone)="Hi, Bill, I see that you are at the store will you pick me up a few things I will pay you next week?
That all may sound funny and far fetched but just think about all the people you want to hide from or just plain do not want to have anything to do with being able to find you any where at any time.
I for one do not like where this is headed

Precisely why I prefer to live far from any city. Have no bank account, no car, no license, no utilities - entirely solar powered. Prepaid mobile under name of someone who is now deceased. No street addresses or even streets where I live.. No property or other taxes.. Etc. And unless absolutely necessary I stay the hell out of cities.. I owe no one and ask nothing of anyone..
It’s interesting to me and somewhat mind-boggling, that at the exact same time Mossad-Wikileaks’ Julian Assange goes on-air with RT and talks about how social networking sites like facebook, google, yahoo and soforth are intelligence agency databases – that the CIA and NSA etc have specialized intel interfaces and “back door” access to all of the networking sites, and further that by entering ones friends and personal data they are doing free work for the intel agencies, adding info into their ever-expanding database of information on the public-at-large – that I am involved in events for one of the large sites aforementioned. In doing so, I’ve reconnected with some old friends and have shared some interesting conversations on recent events, and I am so relieved to hear that so many people are one way or the other on the same page, that this recent OBL horsecrap is exactly that, a hoax-psyop.
We’ve known for some time that the NSA was partnered in the developing of most if not all the top sites, plus was also partnered by Microsoft in the development of its latest Windows OS versions. labvirus.wordpress.com...

I think you are loosing track of how the system tracks people. Imagine a grided city with a rfid reading checkpoint at each lighted intersection. Now imagine a computer system building a database of where each citizen last crossed. Then consider that each city in the nation(s) will be interconnected and running on an eye-on-the-pyramid system. No gps needed. Small power requirements. No j-walkin'. No trespassin'. Always on the street, in the matrix, headed somewhere. Wearing GAP jeans that you purchased 56 days ago, wearing Nike shoes, smoking Kools. Last visited doctor September 1st, crossing intersections approximately 23.98 times daily. The very concept of a man with a gun saying "papers... papers please", with a stern voice, is a redundancy; everywhere you go your papers are read, for political purpose and for profit. Is it now? Is it 2009? Is it coming 2012?
