Did you buy a Sony camcoder in 1998?

As I was looking up some information on the world wide web I came across some startling news. I thought I will share it here with you.. In 1998 the electronics giant Sony sold a whopping 700,000 camcorders. If you had bought one around that time you would have been in for a great surprise. Seemingly the company carelessly/accidentally sold those camcorders which had special lenses that use infrared rays meant for night vision, however these lenses also allowed you to see through some kind of clothing.. so you could have become a voyeur without intentionally trying to be one. This made Sony recall all their camcorders, but people learned new tricks from sony's mistake and made their own filters to fulfill their lustful desires. What would you have done if you had bought a Sony camcorder at that time? I guess I bought mine exactly a year later..
