So do you think employees being recorded by their employers is ok as well? Because it isn't. Having to live in constant surveillance is a mark of authoritarianism.

What about every person in retail? There's like 15 cameras in the small store I work at so basically my every move is recorded.

Are those cameras in the retail space? There are cameras at public spaces, whether it's Walmart, the DMV or the foyer of a police station. They aren't there to surveille employees, they are there to prevent or record crimes.

People here are advocating to have cameras in office spaces, to specifically surveil employees. What the fuck is going to happen for people in home office? That's illegal af, at least where I come from. And who is going to monitor these cameras? The local sheriff's office? And who is going to review all that footage?

Ok I didn't know about employers recording at home workers. That's messed up.
