It all depends on what was recorded whether or not anyone has been damaged Additionally, there is always collateral damage whenever a public service institution violates the public trust because the remedy invariably affects innocent constituents. I'm not advocating for huge payouts, mind you, but collateral damage is not reason enough to ignore all *appropriate* penalties. -ASB: http://XeeSM.com/AndrewBaker On Fri, Mar 5, 2010 at 9:12 AM, Dennis Melahn <[email protected]> wrote: > "At the very least they should have to pay out %BIGBUX for invasion of > privacy by an authority figure or some such." > > Who do you propose pay these bigbux?
