Glad I live in Tas, rare to see a street camera, but lots of home camera's.
You wouldn't feel so anonymous if you knew just how much they can see from the satellites, the resolution these days is astounding ......

Yep they can count the stripes on an ants back, but in-ground homes are easy to camouflage and people looking for us on google earth always have extreme problems finding the houses, or our gate when they visit as it looks like part of the fence. Street camera's in Tas are extremely rare, we mainly have parking and traffic light camera's. We have a few fixed speed cameras around the state, but they are all disconnected, to expensive to run been told.
One of our locals brother works for the government and is in control of the camera and lane lights on the hobart bridge and it's him who told us the fixed cameras are not connected, because they are all wifi and they don't have the capacity to run them. You can see that reality when driving on the eastern highway, they have speed cameras set up but everyone drives at 120+kph, 10kphs over the speed limit because they are aware they are just for show and so the pollies can brag about what they've done. Which is nothing of use to Tas for the future.
