In a world where more cameras, more recording devices, and more surveillance are being introduced each day, it makes sense to push back. To be uncomfortable. The same is true when EHRs want you to start recording and transcribing therapy sessions.

Gross.

Employers monitor employees' computer screens.

Yuck.

Cities install cameras that keep tabs on everyone's comings and goings.

Yikes.

We agree this one is a bad idea too...
