Comment on Ask HN: Security Cameras Inside Houses?

Comments

The average HN’er would probably not have a problem with:

- video of kids birth

- video of incubator

- video/audio of crib

- video of play area

- video of all rooms when baby sitter present

- video of lawn, pool

- video of day care facility

- video of public playgrounds, pools

- monitoring of smartphone, tablet, computer usage

- gps tracking by phone

many will probably not have issues with elementary or other school coverage. Halls, gyms, etc.

And yet, bizarrely, the average HN’er think their and other people’s kids will grow up to be super privacy advocates/voters like they imagine themselves to be. It’s like the 18 wheeler of cognitive dissonance in the tech community.

We’ve met panopticon, and it’s mommy and daddy.
