Somebody's watchin' you!
from - Buck
Ours is a camera-obsessed society.
I have made peace with the fact that no matter where I am or what I am doing there is a better than average chance a camera is pointed at me.
Eyewitness News did talk with Bibb County District Attorney, Howard Simms. He says cameras in public school bathrooms are legal because schools have more leeway on privacy issues
Have more leeway on privacy issues than who or what? Can Wal-Mart not have cameras in the restrooms in order to help prevent vandalism? Why not? God knows they have cameras everywhere else in the building.
If the guy I am renting from wants to have hidden cameras in my apartment to help prevent vandalism can he? Why not? After all, it is really his apartment. I am only renting it.
Are cameras to be limited to only government institutions? Why?
As I have already said, I have made peace with this. I do not like it but I have no real choice but to tolerate it. Privacy and the right to privacy is an illusion.
We all might as well get used to it.
