Meanwhile, in Brazil, a market is growing for stolen surveillance cameras. Just think how lovely: a technology created to restrict crime is actually feeding it.


Why is the market growing for stolen surveillance cameras in Brazil?


Because they're easy to steal.


That's honestly kinda beautiful. If they want more useful/advanced cameras, it just makes them more worth stealing


Who is buying?


Soon, nobody, because they're stolen too often! Or rather, it'll reach some natural equilibrium.
