Have we gone too far with all the spy equipment

With all the Spy gadgets and spy equipment out there to buy, we have to ask the question of have we gone too far? Have we become that paranoid that we need to spy on everyone? The technology is becomming cheaper to buy for more people, and smaller so cameras can fit in something like a pen. While the equipment hasnt gotten that cheap to the point where people can buy it just for the fun of having it- we are in a recession after all, it has gotten to the price where people can consider it if they want to spy on a cheating spouse.

So how does this gear benefit us? So you need evidence of vandals destroying your property or a cheating partner this is they way to do it -recordings are proof enough in court. It will mostly also benefit businesses in deterring staff theft and catch other thieves on camera when they try to steal from the business.

But when the devices are used for spying on people we know? It all depends on if we're using the equipment sensibly, because it can be a huge invasion on privacy, and when it too far to far? With all the GPS trackers, phone spying software, cameras and recording devices it can be possible to track peoples movements all day. So arent we taking this all over the top? Were already worried that the government is watching our every move, but now we have to worry about if our friends and family are spying on us to? We have to be careful that in our efforts to protect ourselves, we dont end up becoming a 'big brother' state, where the only privacy we will have left, will be the inside of our heads.
