Yeah, if this equipment can tell the difference between walking along a floor and actually cleaning it, if it were installed in students' homes courtesy of the school, the principal would have been able to tell whether a student's "inappropriate activity" involved a partner or was a purely solo affair.]]>Mar 10th 2010 10:41AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/10/kddi-concocts-snooping-mobile-phones-line-managers-rub-hands-wi/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/10/kddi-concocts-snooping-mobile-phones-line-managers-rub-hands-wi/
Bam.

I can certainly understand the need and desire to want to monitor employees' productivity, but this is just too far. It's pretty common knowledge that being watched so closely tends to diminish one's performance. Moreover, I'm pretty sure it's easy to judge whether a janitor's been cleaning during the night-shift or just walking around and if the manager cannot tell this, he or she should be without a job.

I wonder how KDDI would take to being watched this closely.]]>Mar 10th 2010 11:39AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/10/kddi-concocts-snooping-mobile-phones-line-managers-rub-hands-wi/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/10/kddi-concocts-snooping-mobile-phones-line-managers-rub-hands-wi/
I guess that's one way to exemplify a lack of privacy.]]>Mar 10th 2010 11:44AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/10/kddi-concocts-snooping-mobile-phones-line-managers-rub-hands-wi/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/10/kddi-concocts-snooping-mobile-phones-line-managers-rub-hands-wi/
Exactly what I thought. That movie is awesome btw.]]>Mar 10th 2010 12:12PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/10/kddi-concocts-snooping-mobile-phones-line-managers-rub-hands-wi/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/10/kddi-concocts-snooping-mobile-phones-line-managers-rub-hands-wi/Mar 10th 2010 12:28PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/10/kddi-concocts-snooping-mobile-phones-line-managers-rub-hands-wi/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/10/kddi-concocts-snooping-mobile-phones-line-managers-rub-hands-wi/Now you don't have to be monitoring a video to know your sub is at home scrubbing the floor in a french made outfit.
You could carry on a normal life while your own phone indicates with subtle vibration patterns in your pocket their compliance and submission.
hahahahahah....
Yeah... it is strange. I wonder who will make the first million putting it together.]]>Mar 10th 2010 3:05PM
