More Powerful Than Facebook Or Twitter - Forbes.com. CMOS sensors, costing less than a dollar, are now being designed into everything. Cheap video cameras in cell phones and the like are documenting revolutions, weddings, and just general walking around stuff. Now, we are told that CMOS chips built into pills can be taken orally, and can photograph the interior of the human body on the way down. What they photograph on the way out is something that I would rather not see. This all begs the question; if nothing is private anymore, will we adjust our public conduct? I think not. Humans are able to forget that they are on camera, even in situations when the cameras are obvious. All of which will create all sorts of evidence that lawyers can argue about. What evidentiary tests will be applied to surreptitious video taken with cameras the size of a fingernail? Perhaps discovery requests must now take this into account; ie., State the number and location of all CMOS sensors in your possession at the time of the accident. Or, please provide copies of all video taken within your body between January 1st and July 1st of last year. Lord, give me strength.
