Surveillance cameras are everywhere. Now you can turn them into a personal photo booth

Artist Morry Kolman has created a website called Traffic Cam Photobooth, which allows users to take selfies using New York City's traffic cameras. The website uses the city's Department of Transportation's network of 900 traffic cameras to capture images. The project aims to raise awareness about surveillance cameras and their impact on privacy. Traffic cameras are not recording devices, but they do provide live feeds that can be accessed publicly. Kolman's website is currently useful for New York City dwellers, but he is considering expanding to other cities. The site has already gone viral, with over 160,000 visitors and 320,000 photos taken.
