Footage has emerged on social media of a Caspian airline plane that appears to have made an emergency landing on an Iranian city street. It is believed around 130 people were on board when the plane landed in the city of Mahshahr. Footage shows passengers being helped out of the plane by onlookers. There are no reports of fatalities

Plus China has a lot of cameras everywhere. By 2018 there were 400 million cameras installed. Things like this must happen in a country like India just as much if not more, but we might not get as much footage from there.



The US actually has more CCTVs per capita than China.

How many are in private places vs public places? A CCTV at a business's loading dock is not the same thing as a CCTV in the public square.

Ideally the man or woman who programmed it gets to wave a body part across it. If they can't do it with absolute confidence then they need to do another engineering analysis until they're confident.

When I worked on a portable ventilator our lead who did all the actual controller firmware was the first person to breathe on it. After that we knew it was probably pretty safe.

When I was in high school, my maths teacher offered to lend me a book of his called "How to Lie with Statistics", he thought I would be interested in it. He was careful to try not and offend, given its title, but I was really just honored. My only other exposure to statistics was a University 101 level course taken in summer school, which by strange coincidence had a professor with a huge axe to grind about dishonesty in media when using stats.

So when I see this above argument regarding cameras, it reeks of 'whataboutism', and a simple click through shows that their number rests on a razor-thin margin for second place. And that's without taking into account any other factors or biases. I don't need my ill-remembered school lessons to know that the country with an international reputation for surveillance might not be arguing in good faith here. Or rather, said state's-influenced media outlet, you know what I mean.

lol that line in the article:

quote:

People often label China as a Security state, when in fact, the USA has more Closed Circuit TV (CCTV) cameras per capita. Regarding the number of cameras per person, the United States remains a clear leader in the world.

It's textbook Chinese whataboutism:

quote:

People often label China as [negative thing], when in fact, the USA has more [negative thing]. Regarding the number of [negative thing], the United States remains a clear leader in the world.

And I'm wondering what qualifies as "CCTV" for the purposes of the report, as it's not defined

EDIT: Wondering if "live only" and non-functioning CCTV feeds are counted, or even discounted from the totals.

Another question: who's posting the footage from public safety feeds to the wider internet? And is it intended for entertainment value? Is it a release kind of like the USCSB?

The difference from a ventilator is you're never intended to break the light plane. It's an incidental safety instrument you should not count on (but can still save you).

At least in the YouTube vids there's no physical barrier behind the workers against which to pin, wedge, slice and dice them with the object being lifted. It's less tense if you only risk being stomped to death or swinged to paralysis by a steel structure weighing a ton or so.

Way lower tech: She printed the labels on to some paper, cut out the black parts to make a stencil and used an airbrush.

She had to use edible marker to hand trace the skull 'n crossbones, though. That one would have taken like 3 stencils.
