Sort of like a 24/7 snitch service. People with cell phones, dash cams, etc... can record everything that goes on. So it's a case of having the prison guards and the inmates watching the inmates.

This concept always scares me. And often when I try to articulate my fears im left speechless. The things that we assume are traditional right are often the hardest to defend; we've never had too

Most dems (the progressive base) will openly criticize the establishment wing of the party.
