This morning I was looking for some information on Dublin, Ireland. I was shocked to find out about Earth Cam when clicking on a photo in a search engine. I didn't even know that such a thing existed, did you? Here is a link so you can check what I mean. So, there is no privacy anymore, we can even hear people talking. Somehow, I don't like this at all.
EarthCam and the Temple Bar Pharmacy have teamed up to deliver exclusive live views of the Temple Bar section in Dublin, Ireland. This famous city spot is a major center for nightlife, restaurants and bars and is a must-see for many tourists.

I didn't know such a thing existed. Yep, no such thing as privacy in this world today.

Yes, we don't have privacy anymore because we can be seen in public thru this cam, wow, the modern technology nowadays.

Long time ago I heard about it. You will see some famous tourism spots through the earthcams and it is cool. At least you know how it looks like from the earthcams.

Fun to see other places but at the same time it feels creepy to me.

Why are you surprised? You've seen the cameras, haven't you? They've even had a television series in the US about this for the last several years. It's called Person of Interest.

It's a scary thought that we are vulnerable to technology "peeping toms" This is the Orwellian big brother is watching us and our every move science fiction turn reality.

Whoa! That does seem quite intrusive if not also creepy. You wonder who is watching all of us. I need to look up Earth Cam and see what they have around my location. ‹(°¿°)›

That is scary. It is an invasion of privacy. At least, the Philippines is not yet included. Too bad for those countries and cities that are being shown.

Are you sure that the Philippines are not there also on the Earth cam?

Yes, I know the earthcam because we had them in every street in Monte-Carlo. The police said it was for the safety of everyone. We had one just outside our apartment complex. I am sure they saw me every time I went out and came back home.

Even if there are cams, it is not a guarantee of safety.

It's pretty creepy in a way but it's also cool. I don't know how I feel about this exactly

I can't believe that I never heard of it. It looks that privacy is old-fashioned, we all live in reality shows. :D Leave our privacy alone!

Looks like public surveillance. Good for security but bad for privacy, and creepy as you said.
