I’m glad she was caught, but why there are surveillance cameras INSIDE a home. Who wants to live in a fish-bowl like that?
Nearly every person carries a(n arguable) surveillance device on them at all times.
“but why there are surveillance cameras INSIDE a home.”
If the cameras were installed by the homeowner, then they would be for security purposes. For instance if the cameras sent pictures to the cloud, then a smart phone could access the cameras from a thousand miles away while on vacation. Remotely viewing the home interior could reveal an intruder, potential fire or other emergencies.
The downside is this operation can be hacked into and a person can be monitored by others. Those others would then know when no one is home as well as other info necessary to pull off a good burglary.
Amazon ring cameras are really cheap and easy to use. It’s not usual to have a few around the house for security.
Many years ago I got carried away with my hobby of installing cameras. At that time, it required advanced networking skills to configure and get them to work. So I installed 8 cameras that covered outside 360, every entrance and living space inside. So my wife and I went on vacation leaving my college aged daughter at home. When I looked in she had draped garbage bags over the cameras. My neighbors told me that she threw a raging party.
I have cameras outside, and inside, my home.
It’s recorded locally to a MicroSD card, as well as to my cloud account.
If anyone ever breaks in, I can review the recording from anywhere and be able to give those photos to police for their reports (not that they’ll do much about it).
Nanny cams. (And if you have an aging relative in a nursing home, you should consider hiding a nanny cam in the room. If we had had one then we’d know who stole my MIL’s fine jewelry a few hours before she died.)
