Homeowners cannot direct cameras at areas where neighbors have a strict expectation of privacy. This includes aiming a camera directly into a neighbor’s bedroom window, backyard, or bathroom.
The fundamental challenge of modern home surveillance is balancing protection with data security. Property owners install cameras to deter criminals and capture evidence. However, these same devices constantly record private moments, family interactions, and innocent bystanders.
