I read the article attached and thought it was quite to the point. Safety. I actually came across it as a re-post and responded with the following comments to think about …
”We’ve installed cameras on a few commercial jobs that have been used in similar ways, not nearly as drastic as this, but similar.
One location to discover a hit & run and another for a kid who was reportedly walking around with a gun, near a local school (both were found due to CCTV we installed and strategically aimed). We are in the process of discussing camera’s for a local city and strategic locations at their remote city parks. There is certainly a discussion, and maybe a debate, on invasion of privacy, but conservative strategic locations sure make it worth while. Especially when it is for the safety of your family, friends, or child!”

Cameras that ID’d Boston Marathon Bombers Almost Turned Off
Footage from CCTV surveillance cameras from Whiskey’s Steakhouse was used by the FBI to identify the Boston Marathon bombing suspects.

If Whiskey’s Steakhouse on Boylston Street in Boston hadn’t rescheduled a service call byCCTV Services in Farmingdale, N.Y. to look at a DVR issue at the popular eatery on April 15, Dzhokar and Tamerlan Tsarnaev may still be at large—or possibly worse.
That’s because the surveillance cameras that canvas the perimeter of the restaurant—as well as the three dozen others inside the establishment—likely would have been turned off when the brothers walked down the street toting the backpacks that held the so-called pressure cooker bombs that killed three people near the finish line of the 2013 Boston Marathon and injured almost 300 others.
