Work at a big company?
We have video cameras on every floor, at every entrance, and ones that generally can capture the view of nearly everyone’s desk (one that captures multiple aisles not specific desks).
These are only used if there are “security” reasons to review them, in theory.
- mc32 8y agoThose roll over usually monthly. Mainly entrance exits are actively watched, or those with an “alarm” state. No one will watch those other interior ones unless there is reason to (property loss, altercation, etc., for evidentiary, legal purposes). You are also made aware of this. It’s not snuck up on you.
- late2part 8y agoI agree it's not snuck up on you. It's trivial today for those tertiary video cameras to collect meta data directly (Changes) or with inference (facial recognition) to see who goes where. For you to suggest no one will watch them begs the question that the meta data isn't collected. It may not be, but it might. So a video camera that's not watched by humans 'wittingly' may still be collecting privacy decreasing data.
- nyolfen 8y agoi work at a small company and i literally have a camera pointed specifically at my desk (all other desks are monitored as well). it's degrading but i don't think anyone watches the videos unless there's an hr or disciplinary reason to.
