In the TV series Person of Interest, two government artificial intelligence programs can access virtually every surveillance camera across New York City, including privately operated ones in places like parking garages, hotels, and apartment complexes. The creators of the show try to stay one step ahead of modern technology.

So the question is: do cities really create a network of interconnected private and public security cameras? Yes, they do and this public/private trend is growing across the United States.

If you’re going to San Diego Comic-Con (and the Person of Interest team is), you’ll want to pull on your Batman mask or slather on the Sith paint if you’re passing any of the marked locations on this new map.

You might be under surveillance as part of the San Diego Police Department’s “Operation Secure San Diego .”

Operation Secure San Diego —intended so first responders could get a view of a crime as it’s happening— encourages private businesses to allow the cops to access their surveillance video cameras.

It also gives officers sitting in their squad cars the ability to tap directly into live feeds.

The first to share its streams was Hotel Indigo, a hotel popular with the Comic-Con set in San Diego’s Gaslamp district.

Whether you’re a resident or tourist, Operation Secure San Diego might make you a little nervous. SDPD wants to reassure you, as they write in a news flash “: We are very cognizant of the impact this may have on privacy issues and the public’s perception of being on video. The SDPD can assure you that we have procedures in place that allow the viewing only when summoned to the Hotel Indigo (or any additional partner) for a service call.”
