Private Eyes - An instant surveillance rewards program

Companies should pay people to wear surveillance equipment.

A few days ago I saw a bunch of mentions all spattered over the internet about this story: they're mounting video cameras on police in London to record people doing naughty breaking the law type stuff. Everybody is whinging on and on about the intrusion of privacy, as usual. What I haven't seen anybody mention is how this is could be privatized to entice everybody to surveil (yeah it's a word) everything all the time, voluntarily.

1. Some corporation like Microsoft, or Sony, or whoever we are supposed to hate the moment, sells cheap wearable cameras with GPS trackers built in.
   
2. These constantly stream data to a control center with loads of screens and beeping noises in it.
   
3. When a crime is reported the police pay for access the video streams taken in the general vicinity and time of the incident.
   
4. If they use your stream to convict somebody then you get a reward.
5. We'll call it Private Eyes, because it's cute and it'll make everyone feel like they are a detective.
   

The company also gets to sell all of the market research data it collects by videoing everybody's entire lives, plus it makes people go into dangerous areas in the hopes of capturing a crime, which makes the areas less dangerous. Plus plus people are more afraid to go out and mug people anywhere in case they are being videoed doing it. Everybody wins, sort of, except for that whole privacy issue.

If anybody does this they should give me ten brazillian dollars for thinking of it.
