No, it shows that CCTV isn't as good as everyone expects or believes.
We've got thousands of cameras, but has crime fallen (or not moved
crime to non-CCTV areas)? Are the streets safe? Are yobs no longer
roaming free and terrorising people? Wear a hood/mask or keep your head
down and there's not a lot a camera can do. It also needs someone to
watch it, analyse it and investigate after the event.

It's like speed cameras getting people for speeding, but ignoring those
who are drunk, uninsured, unlicenced, driving with fake/cloned plates
etc etc. Has the number of road deaths and accidents fallen massively
since the introduction of speed cameras? Not at all. It has raised a
lot of money though.

Get real police out patrolling, who could catch 'Tox' in the act, and
it might also send out the signal that you might actually stand a
chance of being caught. Considering the graffitti at Kings Cross is
getting worse on a weekly basis, someone is definitely active in the
area. I'm amazed it isn't being watched, although it is possible that
the plan is to simply remove it and secure the area once everything is
finished.
