How will pinhead-sized cameras change the world as they become more inexpensive and widespread?

Asked by mattbrowne (31732points) May 17th, 2010

Once they are small enough to be attached to insects, those insects could replace traditional spies. We could learn everything that is going on in countries like North Korea and Iran. Or the oval office.

Or how about a few insects released into the home of your teacher who is designing a classroom test for the next day? Takes cheating to a whole new level, doesn’t it?

What about the future of voyeurism? How private will sex be in the future?

What else could fundamentally change our world once pinhead-sized cameras cost one buck a piece or less? Could it mean big brother becomes real without anyone noticing?

What are your thoughts?
