Consequentialist

Post by Newtothis978 »

Good Afternoon,
I am new to the field of philosophy and am taking a course on internet security. I am trying to connect the consequentialist theory of Egotism (egotistic) to the field of body worn cameras. I am trying to promote this category as a view as to the positives, but am having trouble. I see this as wanting to better a situation for myself and others, but am struggling to make the connection

As you describe it, the connection you seek is not an obvious one, to me. Can you describe in more detail what you think the connection might, or should, be, between body-worn cameras and Egotism? Do you propose, for example, that the pictures taken on these cameras promote the ego of the photographer?

P.S. Welcome to our dance, Newtothis!

This looks like a comment written by a BOT.
What is the connection between egotism and body cameras?
What is the context?

Who is to wear these cameras? In what environment? For what stated purpose?
What aspect of the philosophy are trying to what aspect of the practice?
A little more information might help others figure out whether and how they can help you.

For that matter, what do body cams have to do with security, aside from the functionality of secure transmission of images or a remote but secure access to options on the camera?
