Escape from A Strange Story Chapter 88

Most human beings are voyeuristic. We instinctively want to know other people's privacy, but we are unwilling to reveal our own privacy to others.

Reason and ethics can allow most people to control their untimely desire to snoop, but there is always a small group of people who are very interested in other people's privacy, just like the great white sharks in the sea who can smell a little bit of blood. They are as precise as finding the location of their prey. In order to satisfy their curiosity and desire for control, they will do very crazy things.

There was once a post on the Tianya Forum, in which a stranger was willing to pay 8,000 yuan for the right to monitor the owner's daily life. She/he asked the owner to install blind-angle cameras at home (not in the bathroom). The owner, as a An ordinary low-level social worker with a monthly salary of just over 1,000 yuan. Although netizens discouraged the poster from agreeing to the other party's request and listed various dangerous possibilities, the poster still could not resist the temptation of money and agreed to the other party's request and persisted for a period of time. After checking in the post to report that he was safe, the poster never replied to the post again...

We long for others to be naked. In our eyes, no privacy of others exists. However, we are also willing to cover ourselves up tightly for fear of exposing even a little bit.

Human beings with extreme voyeuristic desires have long forgotten the laws and morals that restrict ordinary people. They may even feel great pleasure because the other party knows the fact that they are peeping.
