"The municipality is not going to immediately replace all Chinese cameras because of the high costs involved. Instead, the coalition government including the mayor and aldermen want to adopt new contract conditions including criteria regarding human rights when purchasing camera systems."
Isn't it possible to force these devices only call a fixed IP address? Same thing for phones: why are these devices allowed to call back arbitrary IP addresses without the owner's control?
So cameras that are used to spy on people are going to be replaced because someone might be spying along? :)
