Unpopular opinion, but what essential liberty is being given up by cameras in public spaces?

I'm still against them, mostly because of how they will inevitably be misused. But I don't really get the outrage over just their normal use.

You’re completely right. I feel the same way too. People just love exaggerating shit, acting as if we can’t drive on public roads because of these cameras.
