Lot of good it does though. I haven't read the latest developments, but the guy doing the assaulting has yet to be identified.

If we're going to have our privacy invaded by cameras, we should at least be able to use that invasion of privacy to collar no-neck assholes like that. Visiting England was pretty alarming in terms of cameras - I'm fairly convinced that every outdoor moment of our vacation could be reconstructed from footage from the ubiquitous cameras. The ice-cream truck had a camera for goshsakes! This is disturbing – has the skinhead-looking person who attacked the biker been arrested for assault, given that he should be pretty easy to ID?
