This would put a stop to all those image analysis problems --
make them illegal.  France has recently voted to make videotaping
human rights violations by the police a crime.  Under this law,
the person who videotaped the beating of Rodney King could be
fined up to $98,000 and get five years in prison if he made it
public.
