Privacy remains a key issue in border surveillance tower project 21 April 2021 at 17 h 41 min Reading time: 1 min

Vickie Lewis, a Derby Line, Vermont resident, is concerned about her privacy, and the privacy of thousands of people living along the Canada-U.S. border, as the U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) pushes its plans to build high-powered surveillance towers.
“Many of us who live very close to this proposed project are worried about a number of things,” said Lewis.
According to Lewis, residents believe it is an invasion of privacy. These are law-abiding citizens, she explained, they don’t need the government overseeing their backyard activities. They are also worried about the emissions coming of the towers and the visual impact.
