event are stored in a digital dossier, which is accessible in a ‘static post’ or through mobile PDA’s [1, 14]. The wards carry an active RFID tag in a key-chain, which gives the control room real time information about their whereabouts. The key-chain has a ‘panic button’ in case of emergency. When there is a problem on the floor, the control room has in instant overview of the wards’ whereabouts and appropriate orders can be given [12]. In Dutch newspaper the prison is being called ‘Big Brother bajes’ (bajes is Dutch slang for prison) [15]. A visitor of a discussion board commented on an article about the concept: “I also had a major problem with the fact that failure to pay traffic fines or petty theft could land you in a prison like this. That means I, and many others in the class, could have our right to privacy legally stripped from us in a very dehumanizing way if we lived in the Netherlands. I think this kind of surveillance, for petty crimes, is completely backwards of the Dutch, who are otherwise liberal” [18]. The prison wards did not express concerns nor had questions about the technology at first. After a while however, some issues rose, for instance about what happens if somebody visit the toilets. It seems as though realisation of the possible consequences of the technology grew in time and that examples can help in creating this understanding. In addressing these issues, the concept designer and the prison wards reached an agreement not to use any information that could possibly be collected with the RFID environment. According to the designer, this has never been the intention and the agreement stands to take away or avoid any concerns [19]. ID issue The use of constant surveillance brings some controversy and ‘Big Brother-scenario’s’ can easily be related to this case. Applying it to punish or reward a person goes even further. However, it remains debatable how much privacy rights imprisoned people (should) have. Besides the prisoners being constantly monitored, also the wards are under permanent watch. This brings about a different employer-employee relationship in which the employees’ privacy could be impinged. It could be seen as a trade-off between being monitored and being more secured at work. It appear as though realisation of the possible consequences of the technology came in time. Addressing concerns and allowing for a dialogue between employer and employees can facilitate in the acceptance of a new technology.
