But that's if we use a myopic view of things. <BR/><BR/>On a broader scale, I think it'll cause a shift in society's behavior. Because the borders of privacy have been breached. I am no expert in anthropology, so I can't theorize or cite an example on what might happen. But I, as an individual, can say that constantly feeling watched won't do good to my stress level. Heighthened stress level in many individuals at the same period of time and location? Probably not good as well. <BR/><BR/><BR/>Oh, you can use it for a lot of things, JBrag. It'll still be a breach of privacy.Isman H.

I mean google has their street cam and there is talk of a bylaw in jakarta to register users of i-cafes (don't know how they do this but anyway). Whats going round in my head is this: how much would your behavior change if everything you did was recorded and subject to showing up on somebody elses website?pjhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14482542083622607305noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3919950.post-64368485239985491672008-12-01T16:03:00.000+07:002008-12-01T16:03:00.000+07:00They didn't go that far... yet, Ackmalia. :pThey didn't go that far... yet, Ackmalia. :pIsman H.

It's the lobby view camera and doesn't even have anything to do with a security cam. You can watch the lobby from your room or you can go down, sit there, have a drink and watch what's going on. There is nothing secret shown there.
