I was told that be very careful, if you go to Taiwan, China or Hongkong.

there will be hidden micro cameras in the bath room, hotel, shower room etc.

somebody may be taping --

and even sell them as vcd.

I don't think they'll get much coin from a video of my old man bod. :D

meh, who cares.

There are voyeurs everywhere.
The entire city of london is a nanny state nightmare.

spy coins? I'd be more concerned that everything you say on a cell phone or home phone is not private, your computer is not private etc etc.

if you don't want these problems, then you have to dump the gadgets and get off the grid.

most people don't seem to mind the invasion of privacy. Honestly, what are they gonna hear anyway but 67% teen age girls gabbing about nothing and using bad grammar for hours on end, 20% couples bickering over who is bringing milk home and the rest a bunch of miscellaneous stuff.

If they want to listen to that stuff, let em. It's a wasted life that spends it's time with it's nose in someone elses business.
