On surveillance in general. Some of yopu may know that there is software
available (and widely used in some corporate contexts) that allows employers to
monitor the keystrokes and number of bytes produced by their employees.
Similarly, Email is regularly monitored in many settings. (I know an editor at
an academic press who had his Email read, without his knowledge, for over a
year!) Surveillance involves much more than cameras; there is electronic
surveillance that is linked to many computer systems. (Not to make anyone
paranoid or anything!)
