@Blacksheep: Amen...
@GlueBall: I'm not against improving safety or even the educational value of better accident analysis - but :
- Such data should at all times remain property of the subject being monitored
- It should not be made available to the public under any circumstance - especially not via the media!
- In favour of accident analysis it is absolutely sufficient that the investigators examine the data and a transcript or testimony is used in any public court.
I do know that there are cameras already almost anywhere, but then I'm on someone else's turf. I don't want people watching over my shoulder while I'm at home or at work. How do you safeguard the privacy of the involved? I mean in those 99% of the cases where there is absolutely nothing to investigate anyway... Who would have access to the recordings?
I don't want every weird little joke I tell to appear on some newspapers headline at some time...
