Asking because of Air India 171. Pilots and their unions are objecting to it because of "privacy" reasons. What do you think about it?

I don't really see how this is a privacy thing. They're on the job, what's so private about that? Plenty of people are under video surveillance on the job.

That doesn't make it not a privacy thing.

In many countries employers are not allowed to just arbitrarily video surveil you.

Plenty of people are under video surveillance on the job.

I hear plenty of people get shot in America every day (on average, it's more than one mass shooting a day). By your logic, it should then be legal, as it's a bad thing happening to plenty of people.

Video surveillance at work is wrong for the same reasons open-plan offices are sexist.

Video surveillance at work personally makes me feel more safe at work. If something happens, the police have a bigger chance to find the guilty party.

And I know that the only reason it would ever be used against me, is if i do something very very stupid and/or wrong.
