Effective and also scary. That same video feed could be archiving (for eternity) every single citizen's movement, action, or even words:

"Citizen #5135: In 2015, spit on sidewalks 28x this year, jaywalked 49x, etc..."

Even if this is not working now, it can still be applied later on video shot today. So we are already en route to being judged by such an automated guardian.
