People Are Worried About Singapore Airlines' Entertainment System Cameras. Turns Out, American Airlines Has Cameras, Too
A viral photo showing a camera in a Singapore Airlines in-flight TV display recently caused an uproar online. The image was retweeted hundreds of times, with many people expressing concern about the privacy implications. As it turns out, some seat-back screens in American Airlines’ premium economy class have them, too. (www.buzzfeednews.com) 기타...Sort type: [Top] [Newest]
Skype in-flight anyone ððð
Just pull a piece of chewing gum that’s probably stuck under the seat and stick it over the camera. Might even be some “stuff” at the bottom of the seat pocket that will work as well. Improvise!
I’ll go with tape, thanks.
don't like it, don't fly it. Although, with a smart phone, laptop, and tablet all with built in cameras, are you really concerned about a camera on you?
Yes, there can be great service enhancement, skype and such. security (to check on pax who may be up to no good) or even to record incidents (asaults, etc)
i don't think this was done with nefarious intent by the airline. "the COTS unit" comes with them preinstalled. probably cheaper to buy with it than without.
of course, just because the airline said they turned it off doesn't mean someone from the airline won't abuse it. but i really don't intend to be doing anything that shouldn't be recorded, especially in a tin can with a bunch of people squeezed next to me.

Personally i want there to be monitoring of passengers in flight by the airline because if anyone is looking for trouble they should be seen. Also there is no privacy in the back of an airliner that isnt an ACJ or BBJ. Fly private if you want privacy.
If you want privacy stay in your home. An airplane is a public space no one should ever expect privacy in a seat you have bought for a flight.
