When “if you see something, say something” becomes “we see everything,” everyone loses.
The good news is that those stories, and fears about subway violence, have never been that big a part of this problem to begin with. The shift to remote work has fundamentally altered the relationship that millions of New Yorkers have with the office. But that’s a far harder problem for government leaders to wrestle with than the front-page freakout over every subway crime.
This same strategy is likely to play out in nearly every other part of city life. If “Big Brother” is a sales pitch for underground safety, why would he be any less welcome above our streets? The explosion in public and private cameras will only grow, along with increasingly sophisticated software to track our movements through facial recognition and automated license plate readers.
