 From the BBC, 2006:

"Web users to 'patrol' US border

Web users worldwide will be able to watch the Texas border
A US state is to enlist web users in its fight against illegal 
immigration by offering live surveillance footage of the Mexican border 
on the internet. The plan will allow web users worldwide to watch 
Texas' border with Mexico and phone the authorities if they spot any 
apparently illegal crossings."
