> Have cameras pointed at every flyer for the duration of the flight, for the incredibly minor benefit of stopping your movie

Besides, all these electronic devices have a high environmental impact, for virtually no benefits. It makes you wonder how we're going to decrease our CO2 emissions...

I'm pretty sure the cost of even manufacturing (let alone just operating) these screens pales in comparison to the cost of, you know, igniting hydrocarbons to make a giant airplane fly in the air at hundreds of miles an hour.

yes, but at least travelling by plane serves some purpose, compared to let say, having a camera checking whether i'm sleeping or not.
