I can think of reasons to tape the sessions, such as legal issues, if 
someone sued because they were mis-treated, etc.  As long as the 
participants know they're being taped and the tapes are kept confidential, I 
don't think this would be a privacy issue.

I guess you're saying that celebrity tapes are unlikely to be kept 
confidential?  I can see that all the employees might bootleg them around.
