Vancouver bar’s urinal TVs raise concern

From the are-they-idiots-or-what dept.

A customer at the bar in Vancouver’s Opus Hotel said she was shocked to discover men could watch her on video monitors placed over the urinals in the hotel’s men’s washroom.

Elisabeth Everett told CBC News Wednesday that she was in a group at a table in the bar celebrating her sister’s birthday, but became alarmed when another patron told her what he had just seen.

“We were having a drink,” said Everett. “The gentleman at the next table approached us and informed us that we were being recorded and the video was being shown in the men’s washroom above the urinals.”
