[Noisebridge-discuss] Rooster watch, round 1 (documenting sleepers at NB)

[Christina Olson]

uh, wat.  talking directly to people who are actively sleeping at the
moment is one thing, but calculated gathering of data, whether
photographs, descriptions, or lists of belongings, without permission
is a completely different thing. this is a privacy invasion and a
witch hunt.  i do not support this.


PS plz append [drama] tag as necessary kthx
