Qatar has held a World Cup where everyone who could afford to attend attended, wait till it's the USA hosting and they will have visa restrictions even on the players themselves 😂.
@HappyBirya@polo_kimanii@dorrieeeeee Capitation right now is non existent, the govt irrespective of WSR or UK they knew grade 10 was coming and they had more than 8 years to plan for it and they never did. Multiple sins do not make a right.
The govt should be held liable for negligence on their end also
@rodgers_adai@Ndonglaw043 Privacy is not a luxury for industrialised countries.
A dormitory is not public in the same way a classroom or hallway is. It is where children sleep, rest and may change.
Poverty cannot be the reason children get a lower standard of dignity.
@nahsh_ochi@Ndonglaw043 They’re not Commonwealth cases, so I wouldn’t present them as binding here.
I cited them more as comparative examples of how courts have approached CCTV where privacy is expected. The broader point still stands: the more private the space, the stronger the justification needed.
@joshuamalidzo If a hallway with CCTV becomes a sleeping area, burden should not fall on children to adjust to surveillance. It is an adult planning and safeguarding failure. Sleeping area is private by function. Those in cubes should not enjoy better privacy than those in monitored corridors.
But why does this keep happening?
The answer lies in human psychology.
We unconsciously embed our biases into AI systems through something called "cognitive bias."
And once it's in there, AI amplifies it at unprecedented scale.
@Admiralangus16@Ndonglaw043 This is exactly where the debate goes wrong. We should not design child protection around distrust of children. They remain rights-holders, not suspects. Their dignity does not depend on whether adults think they may misbehave.
You see a post or article that confirms what you already believe and you instantly like.
But when it challenges your view, You scroll past or pick it apart.
That’s Confirmation Bias quietly running your feed your brain loves feeling right more than being right.

@Ndonglaw043 It risks violating privacy under Article 31(c) & (d), dignity under Article 28, and the child’s best interests under Article 53(2) of the Constitution.
Under the Data Protection Act, children’s footage is personal data.
Protect dorms. Don’t surveil beds.
@Ndonglaw043 We mourn the lives lost in the tragedy. Schools must do more to protect children.
But CCTV inside children’s dormitory sleeping areas is not “security”.
Children should not carry the burden of thinking, “there’s a camera here, I shouldn’t change here.”
After the Utumishi tragedy, the question is not whether schools need CCTV. They do.
But cameras should protect children, not invade their dignity.
Cover dorm entrances, corridors, exits and compounds; not beds, changing areas or bathrooms.
Why is there CCTV INSIDE the dorm? Where does the footage go? Who watches it? Isn’t this a severe child safeguarding breach? Isn’t the physical privacy + dignity of minors violated by installing those there?
Great the cameras caught it, but the adults need to explain. Slooowly.
