Jesper Ryberg | Privacy Rights, Crime Prevention, CCTV, and the Life of Mrs. Aremac
Ryberg looks at the question of whether CCTV violates, or is even relevant to, people's rights to privacy. He compares the use of CCTV to a "Mrs. Aremac," who sits observing the street from an upper window, and examines several arguments based on being unknowingly observed, on observational motive, and on collection of information. His conclusion is that if Mrs. Aremac does not violate anyone's rights, then neither does CCTV.
-According to Ryberg, if one accepts that Mrs. Aremac is ___________ anyone's rights, then one cannot argue that being unknowingly observed by CCTV is problematic.
