If, without being detected, you could spy electronically for the next month and watch anyone, anywhere, anytime like a fly on a wall, would you? If so, who would you watch and how closely? If not, why not?
Uh… I typically do that every summer. It’s called Big Brother and I’m a little upset that it hasn’t started yet. Thanks a lot, COVID!
Reality television aside, I wouldn’t want to spy on people. And what it really boils down to is that I wouldn’t want anyone spying on me. Therefore, it only sense that I would extend the same courtesy to others.
Would you want to spy on people from the safety of your own desk chair if you knew you wouldn’t be caught? Let me know in the comments!

Oh I completely agree! I would definitely say no to this one. Theres no mystery already with all of social media – why compound that spying on people?!? Lol

No! Just the thought of it feels creepy. Not that I wouldn’t like to be a fly on the wall sometimes just to see how someone reacts to something. Other than that, creepy. Besides, if I had to watch, I’d probably get distracted and forget.

I have always considered being invisible or coming back as a bird to do just that. But, in reality, there is no way to determine you won’t ever get caught. Guess I am just nosy. I would spy on people from the past to see if they were miserable or happy, now.

10 days until Big Brother! I can’t wait. All of a sudden quarantining in a house for 3 months doesn’t sound so hard.
