My firend got in a bit of trouble at this internet cafe. The owner saw him through the surveillance camera and caught him doing something on the computer.
After searching for a couple of hours and no luck. I though I try here
My question is: Is it legal for a place to have surveillance cameras and no signs or notices that inform the public that the premesiss is wached/recorded on camera.
btw. I live in Toronto ON Canada..
I am not asking you guys to waste your time looking, you dont have to, i just wanna know what you people think of this. I think it illegal but I am not sure. Anything will be much appreciated.
well I dont think its required for them to mention it...usually you see it posted because its a deterent....we have signs on our shop saying its under 24hr survailence but its not... did your friend even look for a camera before looking at the porno
Yeah.. porno, is that all you people think of these days?
it was theft actually.. he 'took' something of $50 value
I have looked at some stuff for theft under 5000. max penalty is $2000 fine and 6 months in the slammer.
what do you guys think will happen? Fine? Community service?
I found some stuff here http://www.acjnet.org/youthfaq/privideo.html "...The Criminal Code doesn't allow the electronic interception of private conversations.." they also saved an msn convo on a floppy and read it on the computer, this was the proof .
no offence or anything but who would open something that could incriminatethem in a public area. maybe your friend should try standing infront of a satilite dish for ahwile.
