It's easy to name a few powerful countries on the earth from the Google search that they have the most cameras in their countries. However, I can hardly find out any information about which country in the world has the least survelliance by all means, e.g. cameras in the street, surveillance on the internet activities.

I really wonder if there is any street camera in those African countries to look at the people around.

My first hit checking online was CCTV cameras installed in Somalia. Then I really had to wonder why you have to really wonder when you can just check.

There are websites that list all surveillance cameras and/or private CCTV cameras with screwed/weak configurations that you can simply log on to and watch what their "owners"..
