I'm surprised that it's gotten this far without somebody mentioning science fiction.
H. Beam Piper's stories included a standard trope, in which there were many publicly available cameras in various places. "Telescreen" users used their output instead of wallpaper images, and Pappy Jack used surveillance images of a forest fire to scare Little Fuzzy.
Hey, slashdotters! Who wants to step up and provide that service?
