Microsoft Gadget Keeps Record of Your Life

An anonymous reader writes "SenseCam, touted as a visual diary of sorts by Microsoft Corp., is designed to be worn around the neck and take up to 2,000 images a 12-hour day automatically. The prototype responds to changes such as bright lights and sudden movements and might one day even respond to other stimuli such as heart rate or skin temperature -- to track medical problems as easily as to record a Hawaiian vacation."

I was going to post a rant about how this would destroy privacy, allow big Brother to watch over us, threaten the entire civilized world, and be a excellent tool to oppress people. And what happens if your boss finds out about it? Walla, a time and attendance system your boss can use to prove you are where you say you are.

Then I thought: hang on. We could use this in a better way. Let's stick one of these to all UK and US politicians' and police officers head with an audio feed and display all the footage on the Internet with a 72-hour delay. Bwahaha!
