A bill that would allow cameras inside nursing homes is waiting for Arizona lawmakers in the senate to bring it for a debate and vote.

    If it has no connection to the internet with the option to opt out then fine. Also maintained by a unionised medical staff. The corpos create the problems just so they can solve the problems then they pull the “trust me bro”

      Oh yah. Closed circuit only. No need for them to be online.

      But what do you mean opt-out? That’s not really a practical option. You can’t have the cameras shut off while you’re in the dayroom with everyone else.

        Our political system is so busted that the people no longer have a say but if the price is right the politicians will throw the rules right out the window. We should also see what other local news channels are saying. I mean AARP whats their gain in all this… 2 things “The lady doth protest too much, methinks” and Cui bono? Always wrapping themselves in the flag of something. I smell bullshit

        Most of the large security camera companies these days, like Verkada, utilize IP cameras for a variety of reasons.

        Having the whole system be onsite and closed circuit requires a lot more hardware and wiring. IP cameras used to be an almost unusable option, but nowadays with how much data is required by high quality video it’s a far more reasonable option. Not to mention latency has improved significantly, which used to be a big problem with IP cameras.

        Verkada style IP camera systems are far easier to install as well, compared to hardwiring a CCTV throughout a huge facility.

        It can certainly be “online” and still be highly secure. Most clients would prefer that option over a traditional system

          At this point I was assuming closed circut were technically all IP cameras, just running on their own isolated network, one not accessible from the internet.

      with the option to opt out then fine.

      you cannot opt out from being visible on camera. that answers the question to me.
