NHS Trust Spent Millions on Controversial ‘Spy Camera’ Tech Despite Damning Internal Report Transparency was lacking ‘from the start’ in leaked documents Damning reporting on Oxevision from @harriepw at @novaramedia.com novaramedia.com/2026/01/15/n...

@stopoxevision.bsky.social have a template letter and a bunch of easy read resources to explain why this tech doesn't help staff care for patients, it doesn't work in the ways Lio claim it does and it does violate patient rights to privacy and dignity.

Any person or organization in US who wants to extend this amazing work here, please get in touch. #Oxevision (LIO) entered US market in CO in 2024 - a major step in their business plan - at Summitstone Health Partners w funding from #LarimerCounty. #LIO wants to be in prisons and elder care also.

Good news from stop oxevision!

Stopping Oxevision: An update and a request for your help stopoxevision.wordpress.com/2026/01/13/s...

Follow this brilliant group of activists campaigning to stop Oxevision, the intrusive & dehumanising surveillance system rolled out across large numbers of UK mental health wards. Who benefits from the adoption of such 'innovative' tech? And why have patients been excluded from its implementation?

We have updated our website to include information on the December hearings of the Lampard Inquiry, in which legal representatives of Core Participants were given the opportunity to address the Chair on any procedural issues Short thread stopoxevision.wordpress.com/2025/10/28/l...

Hi, I'm v new to bsky. I'm a PhD student focusing on harm in UK mental health services, & I would like to hear about your experiences of harm in services between 2010-2025. (Mental health services includes NHS, charities, companies, private therapists & other orgs) 1/7 tinyurl.com/yt2ydvxx

We now have an overview of the Lampard Inquiry evidence on Oxevision on the website with links to all the videos, transcripts and submissions that are publicly available. Oxehealth/LIO health, EPUT and Stop Oxevision were all asked to give evidence. stopoxevision.wordpress.com/2025/10/28/l...

Not only is this system an infringement on mental health patients' privacy, there is no evidence base behind its use in Inpatient wards. This system is also surveillance, and unhelpful for patients who do not consent to this and have trauma and/or symptoms involving surveillance.

1/ Super work #StopOxevision #StopLIO. PS IT IS NOT POSSIBLE TO GIVE CONSENT TO SURVEIL TECH LIKE OXEVISION LIO. This is not CCTV. They calibrate "AI" w plans to do so-called prediction of high-risk behavior. They're data use is future & open-ended, that's why meaningful consent is not possible.

In January the BBC covered a story about our campaign and concerns around the use of Oxevision. This is the video from the BBC South West coverage (although there was other national and regional coverage) Oxehealth have now rebranded as LIO Health youtu.be/uhrGw_jjtfQ?...

Too many NHS trusts using this surveillance equipment

It can't be underestimated how important this is. Like 'SIM', this scandal has been uncovered by survivors themselves, not professionals. Anyone concerned about patient safety, the merging of the private sector & the state, misuse of technology, research ethics & human rights needs to read this.

‘Consent’ is also quite meaningless in these situations. I’d have consented to anything which meant they weren’t turning the lights on every hour to check on me. I also didn’t really care because I didn’t think I had a future. Now, I’d be appalled if there was footage of me on camera like this. /1

When asked by Rachel Troup, counsel to the inquiry, if the voices of those people "might not be as loud… as others", Mx Porter said: "The voices are loud, they are just not listened to."

Oxevision is a highly controversial for-profit surveillance technology being used by half of NHS trusts in mental health patient bedrooms. @stopoxevision.bsky.social have been campaigning since 2023 to halt its use.

✊️lives over profit, dignity over big tech, surveillance will never be safety, I stand with #StopOxevision @stopoxevision.bsky.social

Following the Lampard Inquiry hearings on the 13th and 14th Oct related to Oxevision, here is a statement provided by Hat Porter on behalf of Stop Oxevision. youtu.be/bzugNOvOBWs?...

In my evidence to the Lampard Inquiry on behalf of @stopoxevision.bsky.social, I refer to a NHS trust who outlined a business case for using Oxevision, justifying its cost through a reduction in ward staff numbers. This is @combinednhs.bsky.social North Staffordshire Combined healthcare

A patient’s perspective: Oxevision* is retraumatising * now called LIO health

LIO have caused harm to vulnerable NHS patients. LIO published questionable research and got their ethics approval pulled. LIO built their evidence base on patients, including children, who could not give/withdraw informed consent LIO are venture capital vultures.

Now rebranded, Oxehealth carceral mental health surveillance technologies, are coming to Australia. @bluntshovels.bsky.social

Oxehealth is launching in Australia this month under the new name, LIO. From the marketing material it seems they are doing what they initially did in the UK, before our campaign, and not mentioning the word camera. www.alpha.global/blog/news-in...

Please read our paper out now about the resistance, repurposing and reimagining of oppressive mental health technologies, such as Oxevision (now LIO), used on us against our will. And how we must dream them differently.

of interest to #SuicideResearch feed #Oxevision has already landed in US www.liohealth.com/us/news-and-... I have such huge regrets abt not finishng a letter/paper requestng reconsideratn by #mh leaders in CO. Can others help w US resistance effort, extending the amazng work of UK #StopOxevision?

This week, @stopoxevision.bsky.social's paper 'Towards a Mad technoscience: revealing, repurposing, and reimagining carceral mental health technologies' was published. Read the full paper via the link below. www.researchgate.net/publication/...

There are some amazing subheadings in this paper: “‘We’ll take your toothpaste too if you keep this up’: the asymmetries of carceral tinkering”

My latest column is about fears of surveillance in mental illness—and why this means new technology in mental health wards should be treated with the utmost caution. @stopoxevision.bsky.social @rethinkcharity.bsky.social www.prospectmagazine.co.uk/views/lives/...

Our Director @debcoles13.bsky.social is currently giving crucial evidence to the Lampard Inquiry looking into thousands of deaths in Essex mental health services. She's reiterating our call for a National Oversight Mechanism to end preventable deaths. Watch here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=Et2k...

The survivor-led campaign StopOxevision will be giving evidence to the Lampard Inquiry on Wednesday.They are likely to speak about links between the Oxevision surveillance system and deaths in inpatient settings. Watch the session on Wednesday am, probably from 10am: lampardinquiry.org.uk

Next week we give evidence to the Lampard Inquiry about Oxevision Oxehealth will also give evidence the same day Follow along on YouTube on the inquiry channel www.bindmans.com/news-insight...

Read @hatporter.bsky.social and @researchpixie.bsky.social preprint (BMC Psychiatry): “Surveillance is not safety: A response to Dewa and colleagues’ paper about passive remote monitoring technology (Oxevision)” An important piece: osf.io/preprints/os...

Survivors have been calling this surveillance out since the MINUTE oxevision got its claws into the nhs. They insist it’s not a replacement for in person care but it is sold as a money saver - and the only way it saves money is if it replaces in person care.

‘Day 152: The octopus has no blind spot’ poem by Sophina Mariette featured in our special issue on surveillance. Read this and other articles on the @stopoxevision.bsky.social website. stopoxevision.wordpress.com/category/asy... #MentalHealth #MentalInkness

Take a look at all of the articles, blogs and podcasts that we shared in our weekly bulletins last month, featuring words from @stopoxevision.bsky.social, @ritb.bsky.social, @centreformh.bsky.social and many more! www.nsun.org.uk/nsuns-april-...

The Lampard inquiry is continuing with the first hearings in April. These hearings will provide contextual evidence about the provision of mental health inpatient care in Essex and systemic issues in relation to this.

Before our campaign, Oxehealth were calling the camera an ‘optical sensor’ in marketing and patient information leaflets. Now it seems they’re causing confusion as they expand in the USA…

New - what’s it like to be a lived experience professional under Oxevision? “Four weeks I have been under the metaphorical gaze of Oxevision. For something I didn’t grasp entirely until I was here: even when it’s ‘turned off’, it still looms above me.” stopoxevision.wordpress.com/2025/04/02/r...

We know from our experience, and our conversations with other patients with experience of Oxevision, how harmful the system can be. To hear of people losing their life while under Oxehealth monitoring is devastating Our thoughts are with their loved ones www.theguardian.com/society/2025...

Things which should go without saying, a manifesto: Stop putting cameras in people's bedrooms @stopoxevision.bsky.social Don't force people to show others their used period pads Don't make kids strip naked in front of adults Let people have access to period products, clothing, toilets etc
