The BBC reports “a US state has begun testing a website that aims to police illegal immigration by offering web users surveillance footage from the Mexican border. The site intends to give web users the chance to virtually patrol the Texas border and contact the authorities if they spot seemingly illegal crossings. Only eight of more than a dozen cameras installed were initially working. Texas Governor Rick Perry, who launched the scheme, asked for “forgiveness” for early technical difficulties”.
