Secretly Filmed and Live-Streamed - Secular Sanity - Mar 20, 2019

Hundreds of hotel guests were secretly filmed and live-streamed online

Quote:…Around 1,600 people have been secretly filmed in hotel rooms in South Korea, with the footage live-streamed online for paying customers to watch, police said Wednesday.
… The site had more than 4,000 members, 97 of whom paid a $44.95 monthly fee to access extra features, such as the ability to replay certain live streams.
… "There was a similar case in the past where illegal cameras were installed in (hotels) and were consistently and secretly watched, but this is the first time the police caught where videos were broadcast live on the internet," police said.

One of my relatives (a tech geek) went on a cruise recently and found a camera hidden behind the television.

I bet that happens a lot. I’m going to be traveling soon. I better reread C C’s article…make sure I’m doing it right.  Wink

Voyeurism.
Many years ago my (then) girlfriend and I went to a party somewhere in London. We anticipated staying the night so took sleeping bags with a view to crashing out on a floor somewhere. When the time came to crash we cautiously tried doors looking for spare floor space to crash on. We finally found a room with some available space on the floor - naturally the bed was already taken so, very quietly not wishing to wake anyone, we joined the other 15 or so folk already crashed out on the floor. As the party finally ended a few more people tried the door - saw an empty space and quietly joined the crowd sleeping on the floor. As light started to filter in through the curtains we were woken by the couple in the bed having sex. I just thought "This is London, this is 1975 - what do you expect?". I'm from a shit town in the North of England what would I know about life in London? A few minutes later - from the bed - came a female voice "Oh my God, we're surrounded by people.". I can't remember if we slunk away on hands and knees - certainly there was slinking involved. As the 'and guest' I don't know if the couple on the bed were our host and hostess but we were never invited back.

How embarrassing! *clutching (hopefully) my real pearls*

Did the couple continue? 

Horse farm nearby. Drove by one day and a stallion was mounting a mare, pretty impressive. The other horses just continued munching grass like nothing was happening. Trying to think if there are any animals anywhere that slink off to have unobserved sex.

The couple had kind'a finished by the time the girl noticed they were not alone. The audience stayed quiet throughout. I'm guessing the couple stayed in bed until the room was empty. Possibly for much longer. Possibly several days.

The good news is that she probably doesn't need to see a therapist quite so often now she's older.

You sure that wasn’t John & Yoko, only trying to get us some peace.
