CCTV Cameras



1. CCTV Cameras. These cameras are typically installed in shops or outside buildings as a form of crime deterrence. Whoever commits any form of crime in areas with these cameras will have their actions captured on video.

2. Unfortunately, I frequently see CCTV videos of theft and robbery are being misused by the viral media to bash and humiliate the unemployed and jobless as lazy, making it a rather insulting form of clickbaiting practiced by the viral media.

3. CCTV cameras can also be used to monitor employees. However, here in Malaysia, I have never seen any CCTV videos of lazy workers caught shirking in plain sight being shared by the viral media. It seems that the viral media is more interested in humiliating the unemployed and jobless, thinking that it is fun and rewarding to do so!

4. And so, to end this short blogwriting of mine, here's a question:

What is the real purpose of CCTV cameras anyway?

Crime deterrence?

Or just another tool to show only the bad side of the unemployed and jobless?
