“promoting the unauthorized use of NYC traffic cameras”

Er, I don’t think NYC got me to agree to an EULA to use their cameras? Is there some bylaw stating that I’m not allowed to be filmed by their cameras AND look at the footage?

Seems reasonable to make government-owned public cameras’ feeds (or time-delayed) footage available to taxpayers.
