The City of Chicago opened a new surveillance command center Tuesday that will give officials the ability to remotely watch and listen to most areas of the city all the time. Stationed around the city will be 2,000 cameras and microphones that send back live feeds to the command center. The city says the system is needed to deal with emergencies but it is unclear what role it will play in policing the city.
