These exist for the same reason that radar detectors exist. It's called
ECM (electronic countermeasures). Joe (top posting for your convenience) wayne mak wrote: http://www.harborfreightusa.com/usa/...o?itemid=91514 found this when I was looking at the discount thread. |

I probably wouldn't buy one for myself, but then, anybody putting up a minicam to watch me is risking getting fired for sleeping on the job -- from sheer boredom! Might try to kick the sucker's ass for invading my privacy, though. -- Bring back, Oh bring back Oh, bring back that old continuity. Bring back, oh, bring back Oh, bring back Clerk Maxwell to me. |

"wayne mak" wrote in message ... http://www.harborfreightusa.com/usa/...o?itemid=91514 found this when I was looking at the discount thread. For paranoid people? For people who think their bosses may have put surveillance cameras on them without their knowledge? For people who want to sue someone in case they are filming where they aren't supposed to? For people who do security work where it would be good to know if there are secret cameras? All sorts of reasons. In Montgomery county, Texas, a dry cleaner put a camera in a unisex bathroom. He filmed young female employees, and stupidly stored the images on his camera. Case is now pending, but it doesn't look good for him. A male employee went in there, and before he could turn on the light, saw a small blinking red light in the space above the suspended ceiling. He alerted police, who arrested the dry cleaner. I imagine the man will get a few bucks compensation for emotional distress. Steve |

Pinhole cameras installed above a ceiling tile are very hard to see and only a knucklehead would use a camera with a blinking red light. |

Gunner Trouble with England is that it's so small that you could make holes in people's beer cans across the other side of the country even with a BB gun. I quite like rudimentary self-defence tools ( beer bottles, 4-D Maglite torches, steel toecaps etc.) On the Harness for the kids, I was thinking of coupling them up directly to the anvil. They haven't got far to drag it to the workshop and I'm sure they'll do it to help their poor old dad. I'll do the difficult bits, like telling them where to put it. |
