Avri, Robert is right. You are really missing the point. The point is not that they would make videos of run of the mill IGF attendees such as you and me for fun. Rather, the hotel-room cameras a) show that hotel operators may be tools of the state surveillance apparatus; b) the sex tapes are used to embarrass/blackmail journalists and politicians who might criticize or oppose the government. That DOES affect the "conditions of people living in Azerbaijan." You might try reading the press release that Robert distributed and not just the headline.<br><br>> -----Original Message-----<br>> Seriously my point was that us being surveyed in a Azerbaijani hotel,<br>> was not the important point. Rather the conditions people living in<br>> Azerbaijan is the important issue, not that some one might watch us or<br>> might make a sex video of our activities.<br>> <br>> avri<br>>
