Web Cameras

On the way to our field trip to Forres I talked about my D&T topic surveillance to one of our lecturer's, Brian and gave me a very interesting link to an article which talked about government spying through web cameras. It was found out that the British surveillance agency GCHQ intercepted and stored the webcam images of millions of internet users not suspected of wrongdoing, secret documents reveal. I think that is quiet shocking and breaking the limits of privacy massively. Even though I know that I will not get any trouble with the material and it probably will not affect my life in any way it is very disturbing that someone would have such a massive amount of footage of me without my permission. I recommend to read the article below!
