Video: Leiby Kletzky Security Cameras To Be Installed Over Next 10 Days, Hikind Says
100 so-called Leiby Kletzky security cameras will be installed in Borough Park and Midwood over the next 10 days, NY State Assemblyman Dov Hikind says. Hoever, Hikind does not answer widespread concerns about the control of those cameras, which were paid for with government money by which will be operated by a privtate security firm under the direct control of Agudath Israel of America. Police will only have access to the security camera footage after the fact, while haredi rabbis, their private security patrols, and haredi modesty squads on the other hand may very well have 24/7 unfettered access.
goyim watch out yiddin do not worry we will not go to police

This is like in a George Orwell book..... The East Germans would have loved to have had this technology.
BTW Is it not prohibited to watch when a women is on her way to a Mikvah. Wish the "people" that set this up would have as much concern about MBP in order to possibly prevent the death of a Jewish life.

The ACLU and NYCLU will need to get involved.

To think that 100 cameras will be under the direct control of an Agudah front company just boggles the mind. Never in the history of NYC has such a flagrant violation of Church and State occurred. Who will be monitoring these cameras on shabbos or Yom Kippur?
One can only picture an amateur watching these monitors each with their own hidden agenda.
Just a matter of time before this causes a major scandal.

If this video feed does not lead to an accountable police agency or govt. entity it will be an unmitigated disaster.
Example If the Shomorim will be the final arbiters people who have a girlfriend, or are secretly gay in this ultra conservative world will be blackmailed.
Even worse would be if the Aguda with their Mordy Avigdors and Weiners get a hold of this, they will use it to get more power.
Did not write "may be" ; wrote "will be". Who are the Shomrim? A group from the lower element of society; hassidic and litvish cop wannabes but could not pass a civil service test as their education in the 3 R's stopped in the 3rd grade and their IQ (Vats vit de IQ bizness?") is in the double digits.
The semi neanderthals will do the bidding of rival rabbis and sects to ingratiate their non selves there.
So please ACLU & NYCLU please file a suit and many in Flatbush, BP & Willy whose secular IQ is in the triple digits will secretly send you big checks.
