San Sebastian or " City of CCTV " . That's one of the conclusions reached by the Data Protection Agency of the Basque Country , which has just closed and refer the parties to the proceedings opened on the use by buses of San Sebastian external cameras.
The research, which has resulted in a serious offense and a fine of 20,000 euros for the Tramway Company , the company that manages municipal public buses, and an infringement procedure against the City , draws a sort of Big Brother on wheels. Buses have since mid-2011 with a camera located just above the driver.
As the City Council was informed of the investigation , opened in April 2013 , the use of them froze . The mission of the apparatus, at least so the charge specified that the Local Government Board initialed in April 2011 , was to record only the bus lane to punish those vehicles that occupy the reserved or circulated for her route. Nothing more . One could capture images of license plates and the same only on the main roads , but the use made far from those contained in the release, concludes the Data Protection Agency .
The cameras recorded the complete tour buses that carried San Sebastián -90 vehicles travel at an average day - time , all over the streets and capturing images spanning the entire route, including driveway and sidewalks , and therefore , " people , faces "sums Ignacio Pariente , President of the Basque Agency for data Protection, which does not hesitate to label the use dBus has made these devices " shocking and brutal . "
privileged view
The cameras investigated by Privacy , it took almost a year to close the procedure because of its complexity , are located three meters from the ground and allowed to record large areas . For example , on routes such as Liberty Avenue images of the entire road and nearly two sidewalks were obtained.
The images were stored on a hard drive that had the bus itself and to reach the base discharged . The system also allowed the viewing live from a computer on the Tramway Company , which had access only 13 employees .
In addition to the 90 buses converted into the eyes of Big Brother, the Tramway Company installed six cameras informative panels , ie , on screens in certain stops reported waiting times of vehicles. These devices were also supposed to focus on the road for the reporting of offenses in the bus lane could make private vehicles, but a performance Ertzainta stresses Pariente , demonstrated that they recorded images mainly curbside therefore Ratings .
Misuse of cameras discovered by the Agency is not limited to capturing images , but also the subsequent use made of them. The City , through dBus , "became a supplier of stock images for all public entities and for various purposes. Ertzainta requested images from an entire day to finding missing people , images have been provided to clarify individual civil suits in addition to impose sanctions for violations of traffic not related to the occupation of the bus lane . Mobility agents and the local police have also had access to them , in addition to the Department of Finance to deal with sanctions , "continues Pariente.
The Director of the Agency , which initiated the investigation following a complaint filed by a company of Valencia security , remember that Spanish law prohibits the recording of the street except for the Forces of State Security and adds that, although some lanes have a poster that informs the driver or pedestrian enters a video surveillance area , " implied that the recording begins at a point when it really was constant."
And, remarks Pariente , the citizen has to be satisfied at all times if someone is recording or not " to spend on a single street or another, because the law states that each person chooses the use made of their personal data . An image is a personal data , and you have complete control over the data , regardless of whether you cause any injury or not, hurt you or not , is the very fact record yourself . That says data protection " , he concludes.
