Do You Feel Violated?

Recently, there has been an article in the newspaper about how the latest Models of camera phones and devices with built-in cameras has caused much awareness and urgency to the members of the public. The article mentioned an example of how this Chee Ko Pek guy, standing in line at an ATM machine, discretely took pictures of this curvacious lady (butt, hair, body, etc)standing in front of him in the queue with his camera phone. Relek ajer!

Has it happened to you? (Well, you wouldn't know it, would you?) Most likely, it is usually the ladies who fall victim to such indecent acts. I'm sure many ladies out there
have felt that their privacy has been breached before. Such Rude people have nothing better to do than to take pictures of girls and store it in their handphones thinking that they can show them off to their friends. How intimidating can it get? And to rub salt to the wound, these picture-snappings of unawared passers-by happen right here in public.

Referring to Picture 1 (a distorted image of me, chunk together to make it into what i had in mind. ) For example, in the crowded MRT train, when a guy/gal standing in front of you takes out his handphone and use it, (while you are sitting down in front of him/her), you would think he/she is SMSing or playing java games, But would you really know if he/she is secretly taking a picture of you sitting down? (Ladies, take care of your cleavage). Try it, when you look up, you are actually staring right into his/her camera. But then again, he/she might just be doing his own stuff. THe problem here is.. you never know! Nokia has since came up with a camera phone that can Zoom in on pics, Well well well.... It's good in a way, but imagine some people using it for other purposes!

There has been rules about where and when to use camera phones in public, but do you think people care? They don't because they know they can't get caught! From 4 personal experiences,(two in MRT, one in KFC, one in school canteen),i tell you ,this place is not safe anymore. Yes, i have to warn you people out there, especially ladies, please be aware of your surroundings as i think this Phase/trend is cathing up slowly. And the most irritating and annoying thing about it is, nobody can do anything about it, except YOU. BE AWARE.
