From the Paper:

"According to one source, Big Brother is already here and we are being watched all the time: "Due to the recent explosion in covert video camera surveillance, you cannot leave your home without being monitored by one or more video cameras!" (Dome Cameras, Speed Domes, PTZ and Zoom Lens Domes, Matrix S, 2004). Man is basically a social animal with fundamental needs for a community in which to survive. Ever since we climbed down from the trees and out of the caves, we have banded together for our mutual protection and support, and civilization emerged as a result. There comes a time, however, when we all look to have some personal space -- some privacy -- and in a modern era marked by sophisticated intelligence-gathering technology, this sense of privacy is increasingly being violated by industry and government. This paper will examine some of the current trends in the surveillance of American citizens as well as the moral and ethical imperatives involved in this surveillance as it applies to the employees and clientele of the American casino industry."
