Upper managers allegedly justified the camera’s installation as a security measure to monitor individuals attending Alcoholics Anonymous meetings in the office, according to the suit, which also claims that video recording of AA members at a meeting is illegal.

Incredible, even scummier than I thought it was going to be based on the title.

It's right in the name, even.

My gawd

At my partner’s last job, they insisted on having a camera above their desk (front desk of the building)

They worked together to make sure my partner was not visible, and the camera had no sound.

I would HATE to have a camera on me at all times, ick. I’m so happy we work at home now.
