US in banning mode

kronas · 13-05-2004, 22:06

i was in two minds where to post this.............

taking covert photos such as 'up-skirt' pictures could be criminalised in the US.

the advent of digital and phone camera's getting smaller and more concealable are to bame and businesses are also concerned.

offender can face fines and even upto a year in prison.

they are banning phones full stop where i work , camera or not , not for the skirt issue i may add but for the issue of ppl being easily able to ' photograph ' confidential stuff

There is actually a website which actively encourages people to photograph parts of a woman's body with their phone and send it to them

didn't know that - seems a bit strange????

- glad you are overworked, though

I'm automatically

in this thread, as I don't own even a basic mobile, let alone a camera one

I seem to recall you saying you only work 5 hours a day or so

Bluddy mobiles are a s*dding menace in the classroom(and in tests and exams).I'm also fed up with the kids unable to go 2 seconds without fondling the damned things.

If somone has the nonce I think they could make a lot of money from schools if they could come up with a legit way to jam mobile phones in schools.

Incog.
