I have said this before and will again, no matter what we do criminals will find ways to use good items for bad uses. The real question is do the pros outweigh the cons?

Yes sickos have hidden cameras in public bathrooms and changing rooms, but hidden cameras have also been used to catch abusive babysitters, thieving maintenance men and many criminals.

I would have to say as far as I am concerned the hidden camera is a good thing. I lived in apartments for years until I bought a home and this was before the advent of hidden cameras. I used to swear people were in my home when I wasn’t there but couldn’t prove it.

I remember taking toothpicks and other items and placing in a place that would be easily disturbed and then see if someone was there when I wasn’t. I would always forget when i came through the door so it was useless.

But one day I came home sick in the middle of the day and there he was, the most disgusting of all the maintenance guys was on my couch watching TV and eating my FOOD!!

I was livid and raised holy hell because now I was sure I was right all along which meant that this lowlife was enjoying my things when I wasn’t home for over a year!

If I ever had to live in an apartment today you can damn sure bet I would have a hidden camera setup to make sure I knew what was gong on when I was not home. This is just one of the MANY things that got me into the self defense and surveillance equipment business.

Another very necessary use is childcare; if you have someone, even someone you “trust”, watching you children in your own home and you don’t have a hidden camera setup you are tempting fate. The worst part is that the kids are the ones to suffer.

Don’t be fooled into to trusting anyone with your children, know exactly what goes on in you home when your not there. It is your duty as a parent to protect your kids and leaving them helpless at the mercy of someone else isn’t right.

Buy and use a hidden camera and review the footage to look for anything out of the ordinary. I would bet that any parent who has had the unbelievable misfortune of having their child injured or molested by a caretaker wouldn’t hesitate to put up a camera now.

It isn’t invasion of privacy; when someone is in your home, watching your kids, it is your right to know what is going on. The fact they don’t know doesn’t figure into the equation.

If they are in your home, other than the bathroom, there is no privacy for them.
