So this is a futuristic society, the one saying "everything here is..." would not see it as unusual or odd, because that is life to him. He has never know a life with out it. The one saying "I think we are being watched" is from a far off different culture that would not at all understand the concept of everything you do being recorded.

So the guy saying "Everything..." is more like "Yay? So what, its called life" type attitude, but is trying to explain that to the new guy. So all the suggestions about hushed tones/etc really would not fit. The concept that it might be a bad or wrong thing is not something someone in that culture would consider.

So maybe when the new dude says "We are being watched" the response should be more of "Of course we are, the entire station always is." ?
