The Surveillance Technology Oversight Project (S.T.O.P.) is warning against the use of noise cameras in New York City. William Owen, the group's communications director, argues that if a noise camera is installed, it could potentially be used to listen to just about anything in the vicinity, going beyond its stated purpose of monitoring sound levels.
