Dear MEL Topic Readers,
Hundreds of hotel guests were secretly filmed and live-streamed online
Another problem of live streaming videos after New Zealand. This time is in South Korea where the online penetration reaches 90 percent, one of the most connected online country. Recently, hidden cameras were found in 42 hotel rooms in 10 cities. According to the police, about 1,600 people were filmed and live-streamed online by a few criminals to their paid subscribers.
Such criminal conduct is not really new in the country. Spy cameras are hidden in public toilets to film the users for fun or money and in most cases, such victims are women. Tens of thousands of women protested last year against such practice and demanded the government to take more decisive and effective actions.
Video cameras have become so small and cheap that they are widely used to prevent or solve crimes and misconducts, such as on-dash mounted cameras and surveillance cameras in streets and public places. In the meanwhile, they could be used maliciously to broadcast criminal activities or violate privacies, like the mass-shooter in New Zealand recently.
Read the article and think if you want to “clean” the hotel room or public toilet before you use it.
