By 'surveillance,' do you mean a bus security camera to make sure no one is stabbing the driver? Because I'm pretty sure most of us don't have much of a problem with that. It's comprehensive government surveillance that is the problem.

Unfortunately, "camera to make sure no one stabs the driver" is the exact tool used by "comprehensive government surveillance". It's something we're forced to accept.

I would like evidence that security cameras on buses are used by the government for comprehensive surveillance. I don't even know how they would accomplish such a thing with a stationary camera in a bus.
