The #NYPD Is Teaching America How to Track Everyone Every Day Forever

Wherever you go in #NYC, there’s a good chance the #police are #tracking you. Enter the subway system, for instance, & your #identity, #banking information & #location trickle into city databases.

Walk down the street & you’re likely to be recorded by one of thousands of security cameras, some belonging to the NYPD, others connected or available to the dept's databases.
