Seems to be a pretty useful technology. As a MSFT stock owner it'll be nice to be able to go back to the video and figure out exactly when Nadella made the bad decision. This sort of monitoring and recording will be utilized with CEOs and executives and such, right?

This is about safety, not about making "bad decisions". Do executives risk their lives and health daily? What about someone working with heavy machinery?

I'm guessing that the buyers will decide for themselves what it will be "about", lacking any privisos about allowed usage in the fine print.

you move in to selective enforcement. there will be recorded violations of something for pretty much everyone, and only a handful of people will have access to it, and they'll selective enforce as they see fit. but maybe if you do this one little favor for them, they'll look the other way (for a spell).

I mean, that kind of selective enforcement is possible right now as well, cameras have been available for quite a while. I don't think that the technology shown today has added anything important for those who want to powertrip in the way you described.

At first? Maybe not. But once you have that kind of power, it's hard to give up.
