2. You presume those with the camera know what is best.
And use information for best reasons.

Not all 'cameras' are used for best reasons or to help people.


Furthermore, privacy is part of life, being able to have a thought and conversation between people that is 'protected' is part of intimacy.

Removing privacy, like the patriot act, or fear of the patriot act, can be used to separate people from feelings of intimacy.

There is an argument some say, if it is ok, why not let anyone know, because a person should be able to choose who they share with, that is part of choice also. Unless the actions are part of social governance, like how a company operates, or in public sector. Posted about that topic before. There are some situations a society could view items, but not for gossip reason, but for social good reasons, as thought best, and with procedures reviewed by society.

It should not be chosen by an authoritative control system without perfect justice, and with bias. Privacy should be the right of a person, without fear of the gossip that occurs.


Although honestly, invasion of privacy is not the error, gossip is. So it feeds those that like to gossip, with a combination of judgment and thoughts of superiority.

7. heh,
Did you ever see the movie the conversation, it warns about such fears.

I don't worry about such things. It is about intimidation.

9. Why what are they going to do?
Their only argument is superiority complex, and that can be shown wrong by calling down on them from above them.

Someone posted they would not expect firefighters to go into a building to save a pet, "in pet doctrine that matches superiority complex"

I agree a fire fighter should not have to, but some volunteer. And the good Shepard finds every lost sheep, if someone likes the use of 'pet' or 'livestock' analogy.

I like friends or children analogy much better, and see the others as only trying to create despair because of the real truth of limited power.

Matrix and tron doctrine are to get a person to think they are helpless, and can not do anything, since only that state puts someone in that state, it is the opposite of faith.

11. I like your use of images in posts.
I rewatch movies in my mind sometimes, and think about programs to write sometimes. Can go without watching tv or posting if I want.

Smoke'em when I got um, laugh a bit, post a bit. :shrug:
