Nanny's Flashcam

Nanny's FlashCamFollowing on from yesterday's story about Nanny's predilection for technology.

I have yet another example of her techno obsession, to regale you with.

This time Nanny has become enamoured with a device known as a FlashCam-530.

What on earth is a FlashCam-530 I hear you cry?

Well I shall tell you.

The FlashCam-530 is a device which is attached to a lamppost, and can sense motion up to 100 feet away.

When motion is detected, the FlashCam starts taking photographs. A bright flash goes off, and a loud voice message warns the intruder to "leave the area now" and that his/her photograph is being taken.

The system, so I believe, was developed in the USA. Nanny is now intent on "rolling it out" across the streets of Britain.

She intends to use it initially, and there is word to watch, against graffiti artists, prostitutes, drug dealers and miscellaneous types of people whom Nanny has a grudge against.

Now, that is fine in principle. However, you may wonder precisely how a piece of technology can distinguish between a drug dealer and a person just out for a walk.

Seemingly Nanny has quite thought of the answer to that yet.

In other words, it can't!

It's primary design function is to secure restricted areas, eg water treatment plants.

That doesn't bother Nanny though. You see, what she and her minions really want is for people not to be on the streets at all.

You see, it makes it easier for us to be controlled if we are all safely locked up in our homes.

Finally, I leave you with this tale about the effectiveness of these devices. It seems that, despite issuing warnings about being too close and flashing away merrily, some 60 of these were nicked in Wakefield.

Another fine idea Nanny, unfortunately it is bollocks!
