Maybe there is some value in public cameras as a deterrent. Other than that, they seem to be fairly useless. They certainly haven't been useful in stopping a crime once it's started. We have some film from 9/11 of the terrorist boarding the planes. Likewise, a film of the terrorist in London was discovered after the attack.

They work as a deterrent where criminals are concerned about being watched. Obviously, for someone planning to blow himself up, its not like its going to lead to an arrest and a court conviction.
