Whoa. That could be life changing. You pass a camera, then, “you have ten seconds to comply.�

Imagine the problems for the Chinese system! Perhaps cross-referencing cellphone data will do the trick.

Sorry “Aussies”, but you let the gov’t disarm you, so now you are completely at the state’s mercy. Enjoy your land being restored to a penal colony.
