    #Seattle has a few surveys up for public-comment on the police department&amp;#39;s proposals to install CCTV, junk-science gunshot detection, and whatever the hell a &amp;quot;Real Time Crime Center&amp;quot; is. Go comment before the forms close at the end of the month! https://techtalk.seattle.gov/2024/02/02/public-comment-period-opening-for-the-technology-assisted-crime-prevention-pilot-technologies/
