Sousveillance might be a rather generic solution, but the right way to do it would be surveillance technologies that dump to the internet (rather than those silly unilateral necklaces).
In the past my biggest worry was that this kind of systematic sousveillance (especially in court rooms, corporate board rooms, and science labs, etc) would turn our institutions into a crappy reality TV show, possibly with poisonous effects on our democratic decision making systems.
I’m beginning to think that we will probably get the downsides of a reality-tv-show-like political system anyway, which makes my biggest personal argument against systematic sousveillance somewhat weaker than before.
