Being observed is proved to make people act differently, this can be reflected in the following ways:
Criminal action
Each defender for the reconnaissance state will make the claim that keeping an eye on subjects shields us from things like psychological warfare, wrongdoing and brutality. That may in fact be valid. What is additionally genuine is that reconnaissance can be utilized simply to carry out a wrongdoing as to forestall it. History indicates us sufficient instances of governments, including our own, utilizing observation to turn upon their own particular individuals in unlawful routes, now and again propelling assaults that are similarly as pulverizing as those dreaded from outcasts.

Suspicious personalities
Reconnaissance makes everybody appear suspicous. The watched move toward becoming ingrained with a demeanor of culpability, and in the end start to feel chargeable. Mental analysts have found that reconnaissance has a tendency to make discernments and desires of untruthfulness.

Partitioned society
Rights, benefits and power end up noticeably disseminated by who has the most access to observation. The watcher bunches arrange individuals in light of who most stimulates doubt, a measure which might be founded on different preferences or political motivation.
Misery
Finallly, however you won't hear numerous savants discussing it, observation tends to make us troubled. Bentham's Panopticon was intended to cause torment on a couple (those in jail) for the satisfaction of the numerous in the group. Be that as it may, when everybody is being watched, everybody is encountering torment, even, maybe, the watcher.

In conclusion
If you want, you can do an experiment, take someone who will record you and check how you will act normallty and check out how you act when you are being observed. Compare between the results and then you will see that if you act differently when you are being observed it means that you want your observers to think you are acting the way you have to.

Recently I read the book 'The Circle' by Dave Eggers. It is about a Google type of company that introduces 100% transparency to individuals by giving them a camera + mic to wear on their chest with live stream to whoever wants to watch. The camera and mic shall be always on! Very interesting what this does; Although it is only a novel, but still. I recently wrote an article using this method to question if we can make our political systems more transparent AND foremost more trusted then they are now. If you are interested? Click here.
I'm gonna read it now, thanks for your comment!

Perhaps this is how the belief in a creator helps to control society. If you believe God is watching you, you act differently, right? I believe, at least, the part of you that has evolved for the benefit of society sees you ; that is the part of you that cannot sleep due to guilt.
Yeah. Thanks for your awesome comment, @twirble!
