WTP 235: CCTV in the UK, Corporate Snooping in Germany, US DriveCams, The EYEborg, and Gratuitous Bagpipes


March 13, 2009 permalink

A bit of theme runs through this week's show. Surveillance. We explore the extraordinary number of closed circuit television cameras in the United Kingdom. CCTV is sparking debate in Britain between privacy and security advocates. Then to Germany, where corporate spying is making news. We then head to the United States, to hear about a teen driving program which allows parents to watch their kids drive...via webcam. And finally, a Toronto filmmaker uses his prosthetic eye to make a film. Plus, a bagpipe enhanced dip into the mailbag.
