PEEK is a live window into the real world. Instead of a map with photos from years ago, every dot is a real public camera streaming right now — you see the actual cars and buses moving, this second.
These are public government traffic cameras (California DOT to start — thousands of them, many with live video). They're meant to be public. More states are coming.
PEEK only shows public cameras that authorities already publish. It does not access private, home, business, or security cameras — that would be illegal and wrong, and it's not something this will ever do. Camera coverage depends on where public cameras exist, so it's not every street. Feeds come straight from the DOT and can occasionally go offline.
