Why would people put security cameras in places where they could be seen in “intimate moments”?

I don't think there is anything wrong with putting a security camera in the living room...

Some bad guy manages to get the front door open and gets into the house...The camera, in the living room, captures his face...

Why do people do it in the living room? Blame human emotions...Sometimes things get out of control...The man and woman decide to have some fun in the living room...They forget about the security camera...

I watched a French Netflix series or something like it with this exact premise!

There was movie SLIVER with Sharon Stone...The movie did deal with video surveillance system in some building...

Hmm, I just had an ADT technician over today installing an alarm system. I was thinking, if he had nefarious purposes, I’ve given him a lot of information and so forth. I’ll double check the system settings and account profile to make sure.

In California, a security alarm technician has to pass the fingerprint check by the licensing bureau...I am sure other states do the same thing...

This guy added his name to the accounts without permission...Make sure only your name is on the account...

I guess you never raised teenagers. Cams inside are the “If do invite a bunch of people over the house when I’m not home, I am going to catch you” threat. Lol

5 Years. Oooh! Boy, are they tough! This guy won’t do 6 months! I booked a guy in once who had been sentenced to 999 months for “Burglary” & “Criminal homicide”, meaning the guy was invloved in a burglary and someone was murdered during that crime. That figures out to around 83 years. This scumbag hadn’t even been in prison for 3 years, and here I was booking him in for “burglary”. He DIDN’T escape, they just let him go. During the booking, he’s cussing us and bragging about getting away with it before... This is just 1 incedent! I saw plenty like it!

I’d rather have a bottle in front of me, than a “frontal lobotomy”.

In my younger days... When the opportunity strikes and the desire... Oh! I can see very well why someone wouldn’t care about any security camera. Thankfully, in my day, they had no such cameras. AND! Of course, I never really did anything “inappropriate”. At least from my perspective at that time! I may be an “old fogy” and getting older with each passing day. But, I’m not such a fool not to know what the younger generation is driven to do. AND, I don’t blame them.

[The Right Edge]

I used to put people in jail EVERY day who’s fingerprints were already in the system. The notion of having their fingerprints in the system does NOT preclude them from criminal conduct!

A few years ago, ADT was bleeding customers as they kept raising prices and did a shoddy job. The hits keep coming when customers are abused as part of company philosophy.

This guy added his name to the accounts without permission...Make sure only your name is on the account...

I checked that only my name is in the users list, and added my son. I also (I think) managed to set up the camera so that I am not constantly spying on my son as he moves around the house. While it's fun for now to tease him about the unforgettable and riveting video of him picking up a cat, that does get old fast. Except if he is at the front door, I can keep spying on him...
