Mobile phone surveillance is by design. Remember Lifelog? Both Lifelog and MyDay are mentioned in the same sentence in the attached PDF. LifeLog is what is is, MyDay devices are mobile phones.

OBJECTIVE: Develop a very low cost wearable data capture system to support the "physical" data stream
acquisition on a person as they experience their daily life. The physical data stream, as a minimum, includes visual,
audio, and geolocation information.
DESCRIPTION: The minimal MyDay Personal Data Capture System version would include a tiny digital camera,
microphone, inertial measurement sensors, compass, user interface, processor, several hundred megabytes of
memory, Universal Serial Bus (USB) or Firewire interface, and a replaceable battery. Compact packaging is desired
perhaps, a lapel pin or headband-mounted (usable with or without a hat) sensor head connected down to a base unit
worn on the belt. Ultimately, the separate base unit should be incorporated into a single MyDay system. A global
positioning system (GPS) and a better user interface are features that should be elements of an enhanced version. A
mass-produced commercial product should sell for less than $200. This is NOT a "wearable computer" in the sense
of providing computing resources to the user; it is a data acquisition system.
it is a data acquisition system.
Mobile phones are data acquisition systems
