"We don't want a camera in our kitchen." These words came from the parents of the president of a major videoconferencing company. Since they live in different cities, the president had offered to install one of his company's videoconferencing systems in his parents' kitchen or living room so they could see their grandchildren instead of only talking to them on the phone. The executive saw this as a great way for the grandkids to keep in touch, but his parents did not feel comfortable with the idea.
