Hai guys
Today i thought of creating this thread for some everyone to know the information.And this is the only place where i get more information and can discuss more.
@Mods really i think this is important if you think this not a proper place you could delete.
As today being christmas myself was invited to my relation house so my mom dad and me went for purchasing gift for my cousin.we finished our purchase and went for billing.There were three sales guys around the TV there then i called them for billing.One man came and billed evything suddenly i noticed that TV and i was shocked to know they were watching a women customer who was purchasing in thier shop.
I felt very bad and want to share this info here and what can be done to avoid this types of activities and what punishments can be given to that guys.

Re: CCTV Misused

@rajvel it is common sight ,but starring in uncomfortable manner surely does bother everyone .
well buddy before doing any thing you should confirm their intentions . If their intentions are wicked , then should have called the store manager and must have given left and right to them. But since you were with your parents , you cant do any thing more , ofcourse not only you no one wants to fight in front of parents[lol].

This is a 'dharm-sankat' type thread for me, because if the same would have happened in front of me then I'd have also joined the guys!!:stupid:

Is watching a women such a serious offense ?

Hope they are not manipulating or misusing the recordings.

[roll] Just looking is not an offense
But using this cams to watch is really iritiating.

You were suppose to ask them on the spot. why dint you do that on first place?
I did not get the irritating part,shop lifters can be from either gender,immaterial of class or creed.

Interesting thing is, CCTV operators are getting paid for this. In my company there are some this type specialist CCTV operators were worked earlier and some of them are my friends too.in the 90% of their working hours, they are looking on to 5/6 or more TV screens/monitors.This gradually makes them to start some strange habits.when i had late night/ night shifts, they will share some interesting information most of them related to ladies in our office. Some times, they were lucky to see some uncensored 'live' videos in the parked cars, lifts etc. Thanks to management for the high clarity cameras installed.these guys can zoom it to the ladies rest rooms of the next building(our office is in 25 acre).

Someone who is keeping watch at CCTV is performing his duty. If he is noticing weird things being done by those captured in cameras, its a reflection of society!

@Rajvel- forget it bro. Using office resources for one's fun is inevitable tradition. You need an example- logging into TAI through office PCs!

There are cases of cams being put behind mirrors in changing rooms.
Here is the solution -

Put your finger on mirror. If there is no gap between your finger & its image in mirror, its fine, but if there is gap, then it is not pure mirror but mirror on one side & glass on another through which anyone can see you. [anger]

You are wrong, real mirror always has the gap and the reason is that the polished surface is behind the glass and glass acts as a partition between the finger and its image.
While on the fishy mirror or that glass, there is no partition between polished surface and our finger(polished surface is in front of the glass instead of behind it) touches the image.
