Why do you think it's not ethical? When you go in any shop around the world there are cameras recording you. Do consider that to be ethical because the main purpose of the cameras is security? What if they actually use the recorded video to improve shop layout, product placements and increase sales?
- ReactiveJelly 6y agoIf it's for security, they should delete the recordings after a while, and only look at them if they need evidence of a crime. I can't believe that of any given shop, but if I could believe it, I could be okay with it. If it's not for security, then they probably look at the recordings whenever they want, never delete them, and have no auditing or oversight of who is looking at them. That's the theoretical difference. It's the difference between accidentally running over a deer on the highway now and then, and going deer hunting. If I benefit from the deer's death, I have an incentive to make life much much harder for the deer. If I were a deer I would consider hunting and accidents totally different.
