(Found) People lived in glass houses/tech allowed everyone knew everything about one another

[laf]

Novel- Read as a paperback in the 2000's. Was not old. People lived in glass houses (even bathroom) because the tech allowed everyone to know everything about each other. However, some people hid in black clocks. There was also an element of time travel to the past.

I haven't read it (in the Pile) but it naturally makes me think of Charles Stross' Glasshouse.

It sounds intriguing.

It does sound like Glasshouse (which I read quite a while ago, so I may be mistaken).

Thank you but it wasn't glass house. It was a collaboration of two authors. I think one author started it and then a relative (maybe son) finished it.

Privacy is gone due to tech so people live like they have none.
They can view the past.

Is it possibly Light of other days by Clarke and Baxter?
