YHK - yet another hacker news clone

I'm opposed to public security cameras. No expectation of privacy in public does not mean we should surveil everything in public.

Surveillance is the monitoring of one party by another unaware party.

A company surveilling an individual and an individual surveilling a company is the same activity, despite one perhaps having potentially greater resources.

I don't buy the claim that the root word meaning "above" means that we should mean that we need another word with a root word meaning "below" given that a so called "sousveiller" could in fact be recording from a place of advantage. (Either physically above a company or given the potential scheduling freedom of a dedicated and compelled freelancer.

Is it sousveillance if one were to write a script logging every available source of one other who's registered a company and is the soul employee of said company? e.g. If some neckbeard "sousveills" every post of a sex worker that's working for a company they registered for their own tax purposes?

Clearly not. The first might be suurveillance or possibly spying, and the second is clearly stalking.
