The NYPD will be implementing a new elaborate sound system to better gauge where gunfire is taking place in real time.

De Blasio, NYPD unveil $1.5M ShotSpotter system, detects gunshots via sensors around city and alerts police automatically

Privacy advocates are concerned that this will enable the police to listen in on private conversations.

But it can also, on occasion, increase the chances of authorities listening in on people’s conversations. Conversations recorded by ShotSpotter have been used to convict people in murder trials in Oakland, California, and New Bedford, Connecticut, raising concerns among civil liberties advocates.

Pressed about those concerns earlier this week by Rita Cosby on her Sunday WABC show, Bratton said “the advocates have to get a life.”

NYPD Commissioner To Privacy Advocates: 'Get A Life'

If crime is at historic lows in NYC, (which I don't believe anyway) why would they need all these sensors?

Let it go. Take a deep breath. Slowly exhale. Don't you feel better?

Police hater posts again .... yawn

Weve been using sound shot for over twenty years... its over thirty feet in the air and is tuned for gunshot frequencies... and it works fairly well....

Never heard a conversation over it....

But..again.. any minutia you can dig up against the police you'll post hype...

Remember .. parolees with tails have to report and have conditions... do you have any?

Actually this is not a police hater thread. Couldn't find one today. Don't worry as I find them, I will share.

This is one is a little interesting. You know, about CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHTS and all that jazz?

Let's hope that they are placed where they are most needed.
