The town of Fucking, Austria, installs cameras to catch tourists…
First of all, in case you’re not up to speed on your Eastern European geography, there really is a town in Austria called Fucking.
The town has had a very real problem over the years with tourists posing for photos underneath signs in the town… and having their pictures taken while having real or simulated sex. Yes, we get it – doing it underneath a sign that says ‘Fucking.’ Ha ha ha.
So what solution have town officials come up with to curb this activity? Why, install cameras and take some photos of their own, of course! They’re hoping the cameras will be a deterrent for people when they know they are being watched and instead of going full-out with what the signage suggests, they’ll just pose for a pic instead.
Something tells us that this will not solve the problem.
