This is rubbish on the part of Illinois State. Mere citizens are photographed an filmed all day. Not counting the bus itself, I counted 16 CCTV camera pods between getting off the bus and passing through the security at the entrance to my building. That's in 3.5 city blocks in downtown Denver.<p>Oh, but film a bust, and you're guilty of a felony. It's an open secret that US police abuse their power in petty and tyrannical ways, but the only proof of this sort of thing is made a felony.<p>"Land of the free" - HA!

Not just an Illinois thing. Here's an article on similar cases in Massachusetts: <a href="http://www.boston.com/news/local/massachusetts/articles/2010/01/12/police_fight_cellphone_recordings/" rel="nofollow">http://www.boston.com/news/local/massachusetts/articles/2010...</a><p>(Note that it starts out with spurious arrests, but if you scroll down, it lists a couple of convictions for the crime of "illegal wiretapping", from folks who just recorded the police at work in public.)
