Abstract

Last summer, a member of the Rationality Center at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem installed a closed-circuit TV camera in the Center's kitchen. An email explained that the camera was installed in an effort to keep the kitchen clean. By the time the camera was removed, a week later, the members of the Center exchanged close to 120 emails among themselves, expressing their opinions for and against the camera and discussing related issues.
