About

how much can you learn about a person without interacting with them personally and through observing them and their conversations/actions?

people-watching is kind of a form of observation and analysis of human behavior, allowing people to gain insight into human psychology by well watching people, seeing how they behave, interact and communicate with other people.

people-watching at a cafe is sort of a form of surveillance/monitoring, these people have been observed without their consent or knowledge.

so what is privacy? what are the ethical considerations of people-watching?
