Brin has introduced versions of the concept into his fiction.

In ''[[Earth (Brin novel)|Earth]],'' the setting's future history includes a war pitting most of the Earth against [[Switzerland]], fueled by outrage over the Swiss allowing generations of [[kleptocracy|kleptocrats]] to hide their stolen wealth in the country's secretive [[Banking in Switzerland|banks]]. The war results in the end of secret banking and the destruction of Switzerland as a nation. In the setting's present, surveillance by elderly retirees wearing recognizable networked camera-glasses is common.

His novel ''[[Kiln People]]'' is set in a future where cameras are everywhere and anyone can access the public ones and, for a fee, the private ones.
