...amateur Big Brothers, surreptitiously videotaping employees, friends and total strangers without regard for privacy or propriety. Shopowners retailing tiny spy cameras (which cost between $30 and $400) say sales jumped tenfold after the Chu Mei-feng scandal. One of the hottest toys last Christmas was a Winnie the Pooh plush doll with cameras in its eye sockets...
