20th Anniversary of The Rodney King Beating

It's been 20 years today since Rodney King was beaten. Although it was a terrible how bad all the police brutality was back then, I'm going to speak on the tech part of the story. Back in a time when this as such went unseen by most people and on rare occasions such as these when it is brought to the public's attention it took days for it to be noticed. Nowadays every thing is instant and you pretty much can't go anywhere with out the possibility of it being captured on video if a situation arises. Is this a good thing or bad? I think good.

I like to think it helps keep the police in order and even criminals from doing their thing knowing that pretty much everyone is equipped with video capturing capabilities. Do I feel safer? No. Do I feel like my privacy is in jeopardy? Not really. If you're in public, you can be photographed or filmed says the law. I don't really know I was trying to go with all this, I just wanted to make the 2 people that read my blog aware of this anniversary and maybe you might want to watch what I consider the first off net viral video. Please, don't enjoy.
