I find this entire thread to be really out in the left ozone (pace,
Steve).
Just about any place you go these days, you are being viewed by a
CCTV camera: buildings, streets, malls, wherever. If you think that
privacy involves not having your image captured, well, we crossed
that bridge a long, long time ago. At least one IPer points out that
cabbies have a far better security reason to capture your image than
do office buildings, e.g., and I agree.
Sorry, Steve. Unwinding all the image capturing technology deployed
throughout OECD countries (including taxis)over the last 15 years is
just never going to happen.
