Could be. Need me to schedule an appointment for you? Just kidding, I don't know or associate with those people and I (generally) wouldn't wish that offence on anyone (there are exceptions).
Sorry for your misfortune.

Devices for blinding CCTV security cameras
Enabling people to move around in privacy

Get mugged, robbed at gun-point, assaulted, ass-raped, or otherwise harmed or traumatized, then come back and tell us all how important it is to ban CCTV and all other security measures that may be a minor infringement to normal law abiding citizens.
But is it comforting and does one feel secure to know that while you're being mugged, robbed at gun-point, assaulted, ass-raped, or otherwise harmed or traumatized, that there are a couple of overweight, braindead, can't-get-any-other-job-but-this 'security' guards slobbering down their Big Macs and watching the show? I'm not so sure. Maybe, instead of investing all that money to watch us get mugged, robbed at gun-point, assaulted, ass-raped, or otherwise harmed or traumatized, we could spend it on training a highly efficient and impartial police force working to the exact letter of The Law and using their feet would be neat, out on the beat of the street. CCTV and other security measures are a cop-out and a rip-off compared to 'The Real Thing'.

Hell man, if you wanna 'bare arms' go ahead, but make sure you shave them first.

And it's online too, which means it must be true
you are online too and you are a joke, so i suppose i ought to tell you to read a book, but i don't know of any written for dyslexics.
and whats with the 'ass rape' amendment to the right to free speech, none of you seem to have been murdered, or raped before you started talking so eloquently about it.
The DHS already one-upped the camera blinding device, with the evil, and non-invasive "Project Hostile Intent"

"Cameras would snap pics or video of people's faces, which could then be automatically analysed for suspicious expressions - perhaps an anticipatory evil leer or vacant mindless drool at the prospect of finally attacking the hated Great Satan.
New Scientist reports that this is already done by specially-trained human screeners, but that's too manpower-intensive and time consuming for widespread use. Apart from expression scanning, the computers might check for suspicious eyeball movements - bad guys are well known to shiftily look left and right when worried.
There was no word on plans to seize and interrogate anyone whose eyes were too close together, or all bald men in wheelchairs stroking fluffy white cats.
Other notions might include laser or microwave scans which could measure how sweaty people's skin was, check for suspicious heartbeat patterns, or detect other signs of exaggerated fear as they entered the security channel - incontinence, perhaps.
If enough of these tests came up negative - suspicious face, heartbeat too fast, overly moist skin or pants - the luckless traveller would be drawn aside for a more thorough probing, though hopefully still "non-invasive".

Let's be perfectly honest with ourselves, shall we. Security... at least it's a way to give jobs to the previously unemployable. We used to make them run about in the mud, crop their hair and give them a gun, then drop them over enemy territory and cross our fingers they wouldn't come back. It's a terrible thing all this political correctness if we can only give them security jobs now.
if you have that much time on your hands to make toilet paper animals, odenwalder, then i would be concerned!
this link i found also has a similar thread.
surely the use of the "protection sheild" only makes you appear more suspiscious,whether you are or not.

to be honest i would rather have the cctv camera's.for the feeling of my own personal safety.touch wood i would never need the video evidence but dont you find it a little settling to know that its there if you needed it?
if they did put CCTV in toilets then to be honest i would just feel bad for the person who has to spend their day watching it!
if youve got nothing to be ashamed of then why try and hide it??
whats gonna happen from having CCTV in your own home?people can watch you take a dump and you can become a porn star!
or it can bring justice when you need it.
ok valid point that crimes were solved before CCTV came along but so has civilisation,or lack of it.cctv is necesarry nowadys.
I'm kent brockman and that was my two cents
