From Dan Gillmor's column and blog (which now includes phonecam snapshots):
I've noted before the potential for making these cameras an integral part of tomorrow's journalism, as when everyday folks might capture breaking news or get evidence of wrongdoing. I've thought less about the evident drawbacks, which are unfortunately growing as well. Example: On a Web site I won't name, people post images they've taken — in public places — of other people's (clothed) behinds. Several health clubs have taken to banning camera-phones in locker rooms to prevent more serious abuse. It won't be long before we can embed cameras into our clothes or eyeglasses. What will happen then? Will we decide to be nothing but snoops? We'll all be answering these questions for some time to come.
