Vous avez frissonné devant les sociétés totalitaires que promettaient la plupart des films de science-fiction ? Éteignez vos écrans et ouvrez grand les yeux. Près d'un milliard de caméras sont déjà braquées sur vous, surveillant votre comportement dans les rues, les magasins, les bureaux, les écoles... Pire : très bientôt, armés de lunettes connectées, des millions d'êtres humains filmeront en continu leur vie, et donc celle des autres. L'homme était jadis un loup pour l'homme. Il sera bientôt une loupe pour ses semblables.Personne ne pourra empêcher cela. Ni les individus ni les États.C'est cet apparent constat d'échec que Robin Rivaton renverse et déconstruit tout au long de ce livre si original, et résolument optimiste. Puisque la technologie va s'imposer à nous, nous n'avons guère le choix : réfléchissons, et prenons le meilleur d'elle. Les possibilités semblent infinies. Imaginez comme les villes seraient propres, et combien les incivilités baisseraient ! Imaginez les rues rendues aux habitants, qui n'auraient plus peur d'y marcher la nuit ! Imaginez le désengorgement des tribunaux, avec des procès plus justes, et où ce ne serait plus parole contre parole ! Écologie, justice, criminalité : servons-nous du progrès pour vraiment progresser.

In many countries camera surveillance has become commonplace, and ordinary citizens and consumers are increasingly aware that they are under surveillance in everyday life. Camera surveillance is typically perceived as the archetype of contemporary surveillance technologies and processes. While there is sometimes fierce debate about their introduction, many others take the cameras for granted or even applaud their deployment. Yet what the presence of surveillance cameras actually achieves is still very much in question. International evidence shows that they have very little effect in deterring crime and in 'making people feel safer’, but they do serve to place certain groups under greater official scrutiny and to extend the reach of today’s ‘surveillance society’. Eyes Everywhere provides the first international perspective on the development of camera surveillance. It scrutinizes the quiet but massive expansion of camera surveillance around the world in recent years, focusing especially on Canada, the UK and the USA but also including less-debated but important contexts such as Brazil, China, Japan, Mexico, South Africa and Turkey. Containing both broad overviews and illuminating case-studies, including cameras in taxi-cabs and at mega-events such as the Olympics, the book offers a valuable oversight on the status of camera surveillance in the second decade of the twenty-first century. The book will be fascinating reading for students and scholars of camera surveillance as well as policy makers and practitioners from the police, chambers of commerce, private security firms and privacy- and data-protection agencies.
