Attorneys from my former client Torys, LLP have published an article on workplace policies for cameraphones. It's an interesting piece, and I'd like to comment much further, especially on some of the issues that have been left out. But I feel proscribed; for two reasons: first and foremost, loyalty to a former client, but second, the fact that the mobile blogging tool Justin developed and launched about a year ago - Airblogging - has been used on occasion to post live photos from workplaces. The results are usually positive, both for the blogger and the employer, but of course they needn't necessarily be. |
There was a good article in the Palo Alto Daily News that discussed camera-phone policies in schools. Apparently, there's a fear that the devices could be used to cheat on tests. Using moblogging technology, a person could photograph a test, then email it or post it to a website, where a future test-taker could get a preview. I think something like this may have already happened with a bar exam in Hawaii.
