minus-squareStopthatgirl7@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up41·26 days agoWhy on earth would they put cameras in locker rooms?! That vague “safety and security” Is not going to cut it as an acceptable reason. This wouldn’t fly as a reason to put cameras in women’s locker room, and it shouldn’t fly as a reason to put on in men’s, either.
minus-squareFuglyDuck@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up12·26 days agoI’m assuming there’s either stealing issues, or some form of harassment happening. Doesn’t matter, the camera is passive and not going to correct whatever liability concern have; while introducing entirely new liability concerns…
minus-squaresunzu2@thebrainbin.orglinkfedilinkarrow-up12·26 days agoWell they are testing it in men’s… I am sure women will need safety and security too!

minus-squareCluckN@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up9·26 days agoThey probably had some repeated instances of stealing and thought a $2000 security camera setup is cheaper than hiring more staff. I’m assuming they also can’t admit they have an issue with thieves because it could make them look bad?
