USPS Equipping Mail Trucks With Surveillance Cameras

Original: USPS Is Turning Mail Trucks Into Rolling Surveillance Cameras

The United States Postal Service is reportedly outfitting its mail trucks with cameras that could function as mobile surveillance units, recording streets and neighborhoods on regular delivery routes. With one of the largest vehicle fleets in the country, the move raises questions about how much footage is collected and how it might be shared, and privacy advocates are likely to push back.

Why now: People are reacting to privacy concerns over a government agency's massive fleet being used for street-level surveillance.
