Can a vertical surveillance mechanism’s limiting be achieved via policymaking?

In a world where a state were allowed to do so, state power would not only concern itself with the street corners to install a surveillance camera. In such a world, the network of surveillance cameras would be not only horizontal, with a street-by-street installation, but also vertical: any act of transgressively removing the street-corner camera is recorded, but any act of transgressively shutting down the screens in which the street’s footage is monitored is also recorded, and if one goes ‘further up’ to remove that camera, another one is recording still, presenting it to yet another screen, which is also being recorded, and so on. Now, although the following might not yet be empirically true, let us assume that each camera in the vertical chain is powered by its own energy source, like a battery, and is therefore not connected to an infrastructure which has a switch where every camera can be shut off all at once. 

The question then is, is this vertical system of surveillance going to be within any policymaker’s control even if a protest against repressive authorities that used them is waged? It seems that it is not. If the immediate aftermath of that surveillance-based regime's change is still chaotic and highly uncertain, who would really feel the bravery to go and uninstall a series of monitoring screens when he/she knows that he/she might 'find' a hidden camera recording him/her in the act of doing so? Who really would feel the desire to go even ‘higher’ and uninstall other cameras if that space itself is being recorded? And if it is going to take a number of those individuals or groups willing to risk repression or serious punishment to just uninstall the whole vertical system of cameras one by one, to reclaim the public space in a quite basic way, can this process of uninstalling ever become a policy process, or is it destined to be a long, drawn-out process of ‘street politics’ which consumes the resources and heightens the anxieties of all those involved and of those in public spaces in general? In a quite literal sense, can anyone venture an anti-surveillance policy proposal in that tentative moment 'after the revolution,' when that very room might be being monitored/filmed by an elsewhere space which, if compromised, is itself being monitored/filmed by another space? It is as if the narrative of that situation for that society would fully transpire only within a 'street politics' mode, and the transition to a better regime, where policymaking can come to the fore, would not be achieved. It seems that certain real situations we are in can only be overcome via a street political rather than a policymaking intervention. But such political interventions are more costly and more insecure. In any case, the uninstallation of surveillance cameras has to be one component in a 'street political' strategy due to the very nature of the phenomena of vertical surveillance.
