Big Brother is watching your house.

George Orwell's Big brother theory has become very true. Even if you don't believe it just look at technology today. There are camera's everywhere, on the street, in buildings, your phones, you have google earth where you can see your own house on a map via satellites. Britian alone has 4.2 million cameras on the streets, thats 1 camera for every 14 people and each person is caught on a camera an average of 300 times a day. Within 200 yards of Orwell's former flat, there were 34 cameras recording every moment. Although it seems over the top to have this many cameras, it comes with it's good and it's bad. Although these camera's may help with theft and crime in gerneral it's also a loss of privacy and some people can't handle being watched 24.7 so it's for you to decide.
