    Amazon could also be ordered to stop selling the spycam used to harm the plaintiff and any products considered “identical” to that spycam

    They haven’t already done so? Afraid it will make them look guilty or something?

    Amazon is stunned and dismayed that a customer would use a spy cam for spying.

    Dumbasses.

  • Tech legal expert Eric Goldman wrote that a victory for the plaintiff could be considered “a dangerous ruling for the spy cam industry and for Amazon,” because “the court’s analysis could indicate that all surreptitious hook cameras are categorically illegal to sell.” That could prevent completely legal uses of cameras designed to look like clothes hooks, Goldman wrote, such as hypothetical in-home surveillance uses.

    What aload of horseshit. Someone who for whatever reason feels the need for home surveillance does not need to hide the fact that they are surveilling. The only intent of these products is to take footage of people without their consent.

    Also helping to create child pornography should not result just in punitive damages. The people who sold and advertised this product should spend some time in prison.
