Hotel managers in Barbados are pondering the ramifications of camera phones, although it's not a big deal, according an article in the Barbados Daily Nation. Some hotel managers are concerned that their staff could take photos of guests in compromising situations.
The article quotes one hotelier, who didn't want to be named, as saying, "“There are possible risks. People can use a camera in any kind of position they want, so can guests in the hotel....You know the two people may not even be husband and wife and they’re just hiding out and you will take their picture in [a] compromising situation."
One manager says he doesn't want to ban cellular phones because they are useful, but he's concerned about inappropriate use. He suggests that the Barbados Hotel & Tourism Association explore the situation.
Hmmm. I wonder if any hotel or tourism associations in the United States are looking into the ramifications of camera phones.
