So, we have a bit of a decision to make here. I have my preferences, of course, but they may not line up with yours and since they might mean some... dramatic life changes for us, it would be best if I asked you.
Some of you may know many of the security cameras don't work. It's a longstanding problem. Some of you may know why they don't work. (If you don't, the less you know, the better.) I can fix this issue so that the security cameras on the Rig work. All of them. Everywhere. However, with the limited functionality of the computers I'm allowed to use, I can't keep them selectively blind. They'll either work for both Jorgmand and us or not at all. In addition, once I've informed Jorgmund that the problem's been fixed, there's no plausible way for us to go back to enjoying the relative privacy we've had so far.
So, in short, we'd have eyes and could rely both on Security and ourselves to spot anything... amiss, like our attacker moving into action again. But there would be no more blind spots, we'd have to be more careful, or find a way to engineer glitches that won't raise suspicion.
That's option 1.
Option 2 is simple.

[The image is of Alia's workspace, largely spotless and polished to a near mirror-sheen. For those with lots of hope and a fertile imagination, no, this isn't her attempting the one finger selfie challenge. Repent for your sins. No, instead it's a few small robots. Some mechanical worms about four or five inches long, something that looks like segmented snake, and a metallic spider the size of a large tarantula. Only five total.]
Apologies for the low quality image. Jorgmund's communicators are rather substandard. For the past several weeks, I've been allowed a small budget to build useful machines and advance Jorgmund's scientific knowledge. As you can see in the attached image, this is what I have available so far. The other options are either too loud or too large to fit into the ducts without issue. I could build more, easily, but I've used up my allotted budget and couldn't put cameras inside of them.
We can send these on patrols, inspecting various rooms, point them at specific suspects to track, or set to watch specific areas where an attack or an escape may occur. I can explain their use to the R&D heads as field testing, if need be.
With these active, we would maintain our privacy but, as you can see, we would be limited to only five more sets of eyes in addition to our own.
Personally, Option 1 feels like the best choice, but I'm not going to take such a step without consulting the rest of you.

I can understand our worlds are different enough that you didn't have the Sirian invasion of '39, but World War II feels like it should've stayed the same in most worlds like ours.
no subject
If he had a secret base on Ganymede, why is he bothering with Europe when he has the solar system at his fingertips? Just when you think his role in history couldn’t be worse, surprise! There’s another universe where the hatred and pointlessness can reach this whole other level you can’t even fathom.
You mean Syrian?
no subject
No, the Sirians. Syria was too busy trying to gain independence from France to build a flying saucer. But I'm guessing if you didn't have that either, things were pretty different early on. Next you'll be telling me that the Nazis didn't ally with Atlantis and invade Fairy Land.
no subject
The Nazis didn’t ally with Atlantis. Namor was fighting the Nazis. He’d probably flood your quarters for suggesting it.
I think our worlds have major differences.
