- Have you ever wondered if you're being watched?
It's a feeling that's creeping in for more travelers, as stories of hidden cameras - in hotel rooms, house rentals, cruise ships, even airplane bathrooms - continue to make headlines.
Spycams were once the stuff of international espionage, with secret agents given cameras resembling pocket watches, matchbooks - even tubes of lipstick.
Pieter Tjia, founder of Singapore tech company OMG Solutions, said that cameras have become smaller and harder to see in the past three years - often hidden in everyday objects such as calculators, diffusers, and water bottles.
But how hard is it to find these cameras? And do devices designed to locate hidden cameras really work?

A lot of you are asking for the names of the products we tested. You can find them all in this article: www.cnbc.com/2024/01/22/how-to-find-a-hidden-camera-in-a-hotel-room-or-house-we-tested-5-ways-.html
No matter what it's been Rule 34
🌸 the device you suggest is $400 and it’s not advanced enough to locate all cameras
Why not advise people their rights and legality of this instead, because the culprits can be incarcerated for the offence
one method, which I use, is to have an old cheap camcorder with night vision. This will allow you to see the IR being emitted from cameras capable of night vision. This works unless you have an emitter that is seperate from the camera, but if you find an emitter than you know that there are cameras around.
can you sue the FBI for placing cameras in your home and slandering/lilbeling you to foreign governments and law enforcement agencies ?
Waste of Watching... No proper solutions provided, wasted the time....!!!
The thing is, you wouldn't need to find every camera in the room. If you just find one, you can safely assume there's probably more, and I ain't staying in that room.
The big question is how sure you're that you can find at least one?
Easy just cheek the toilet rule 34
Turn off the modem in the house ...no wifi or internet = no streaming to the cloud or to a HDD...simple
@@__PJ__ thats fine, but if a camera has sd card, then cant help that
@@Aman-uu7vi SD can only hold so much data. It would have to be motion activated and run a low pixel rate. My security cameras outside my doors running 24/7 1080p use over 15000 GB a month in data.. What's the biggest SD card 256g ? it would run out after a day so dont host an orgy in the first 24 hrs ;)
It's disgusting that people even have to worry about this.
Exactly 😮
But it's the exact world we're living in, such criminals gone unpunished so they have been just piling up!
WE ALL KNOW WE ARE BEING SPIED ON, another way that has been used since the 1960’s is the electromagnetic spectrum spying on Our Personal Computers(Our electrical brains).
They are able to use computers to download “their thoughts”💭into Our thoughts 💭 and this leads them to “follow” US, and take Our ideas, and Our lives, if they so wish, which brings US to “what happens to those quarts of living blood”🩸taken out of Our bodies at the Hospitals 🏥? >>
Follow the “red drink” , “I” can’t say what this red drink is or they will censor.
You have been warned
Modern society (media/entertainment/social media) has taught humans to be immoral and get away with it "richer". Its so much easier to be a bad person these days and its systematically forced this way. Listen to the music charts, look at the movies. The messages all go down the same road of immorality.
For the victim who sued the hotel... she didn't "fail" to pay the ransomer, she refused. Saying that she failed makes it seem like she was in the wrong, and she wasn't. But the ransomer most certainly failed in being a decent human being.
Exactly
Plus you can't be sure that the ransomer won't release the pictures anyway.
we normalize predatory behaviour in american english.
Bro, no one is thinking she was in the wrong.
The thing about paying a ransomer, lets the ransomer know that you've got money and are willing to pay. You might end up getting more inquiries of money, or even your data sold to other people looking for targets to pressure.
If the ransomer/scammer does follow through on their threat.. They'll be committing more serious crimes, take away their leverage as well as provoke more reason from you to retaliate, so in most cases.. Someone like that would likely just make threats and be careful of actually following through.
One thing that you can do is turn off all the lights and look for the dim glow of infrared LEDs which many cameras use for night vision. You can also open the camera app on your phone and watch the screen while you point it around (in the dark); your phone’s camera can be more sensitive to infrared than your eyes. You should try it with both the front and rear cameras since they could vary in sensitivity.
Your eyes aren't able to see infrared, but yes. Your phone is perfect. I used to do that trick all the time to see if the remote was dead for TV's etc.
I was looking for this trick that no one seems to have mentioned here. I do the same
yes an informative Helpful answer..thanks seeing as the video was basic to useless
Works a lot better if you remove the IR filter in/on/behind the cameras lens. Just use a real cheap camera you don't want to use for photography. Although it's quite interesting if your remove the cameras IR blocking filter and screw, onto the lens, an IR pass filter. A modified web camera connected to a phone or tablet is my preferred option.
Keep well all. 🙂 🇦🇺
But not all.cameras have IR LEDs right?
All you need is to find one camera/device and sue the owner of the establishment...don't stress yourself looking for more. Find just ONE!
Yeah and if you find one in a hotel room, don't alert the hotel staff just call the police. Stay by the camera until they arrive. Don't give the hotel employee who planted it a chance to get rid of the evidence. Near me someone found a skimmer on a convenience store ATM and told the clerk. Police were never called. Take a wild guess who put the skimmer on the ATM.
Well don't leave us in suspense; who was it? 😜@@MakerInMotion
Or.....plant it yourself.... 🤐🤑😇🤣
THIS 🎯
@@MakerInMotiongreat advice! I would have told the hotel staff... thanks
So, for now, you should immediately turn all objects 90* when you enter an unknown lodging facility.
Still a few objects with cameras could be purposefully placed to have their cameras not directed at you so when you turn them you actually direct them at yourself. :P
My advice is to clear all small items, nick-nacks. Put them in one area or in a box. Only keep big items. Then check big items carefully.
Check how dusty everything is then look for cleaned, touched surfaces or items. Any item that looks out of place.
you mean 180 degree?
@atrongly doubt they'd do that. It's easier to record more people having such hidden cameras already facing the right direction pingmetal
there should be a law penalizing hotels/hosts if any cameras are found, so they're incentivized to do the detection from their end
and how are they supposed to do that in the 8 minutes the housekeeper gets to turn the room?
@hawkhillfalconer3529 well perhaps now they need to buffer more time or innovate a new design solution that can efficiently detect hidden cameras - they're the provider, so they should be responsible
@@hawkhillfalconer3529 New issues call for new solutions.
I think it would be really stupid for the hotel/host to place the cameras. It makes a lot more sense that cleaners or the previous guests placed the cameras and will collect them some later date.
Right if we cant poop outside now eww son but yes
Found hidden camera in my daughters dorm room at her college back in 2015, I reported it to the police. They never found who installed it, but it was wireless and video/sound can be downloaded just walking by the dorms. The RA(s) was instructed to check all rooms and found three more, I am sure there is more but that's all they told us at the time.
The police didn't find out who because they didn't do any work. ACAB
90% it’s one of the college employees either janitors, maintenance, someone who has access to the rooms. And then either it’s for their perverted pleasure or to sell them on the dark web
Hidden camera anxiety unlocked 🎉
Omg, right???
be very careful.
You're telling us...
Just what @cnbci wanted.
I already knew about this but I only always check roughly and then give up, I never shower or change clothes with lights on anyways and if theres a nightmode cam I dont really care that much, hardly can even see who I am on that
If anyone recorded me naked, they would pay me to stay dressed or leave the room.
Same for me but some people have the misfortune of being hot.
😂😂😂

🤣🤣🤣
Perhaps we need harsher punishments for sexual crimes.
Are you trying to destroy the political system? 🤣👍🇦🇺
we do have harsh punishments. it's just that crimes like these are hard to prove
@@cvspvr true
Yup longer prison time and they should remove that crap off the internet. If you search up “spy videos” expect a warning letter from the feds then fines and jail time.
cameras dont need to have a sexual purpose.
What's even more terrifying is these hidden cameras are only going to become more advances and affordable...
they still require wi-fi or Bluetooth both are extremely vulnerable to signal jamming and Emp pulse.
@@ZCR2 True, but they can also record directly to an SD card stored within the unit and uploaded to a device later. Also, most people aren't thinking to use a signal jammer or EMP, much less even own/carry such devices.
Fiber cameras are out and hotels that has a worker has enough time to run the fiber to a remote location. If you hadn't seen the video showing North Koreas foreigner hotel that has one floor dedicated to recording the hotels events, including each room then I would suggest it. Fiber optic is placed in plane sight, on walls with wallpaper or baseboards blend right in.
In our country a women find a hidden cam in the changing room of a reputed Spa and beauty parlour. Then she informed the police and after searching police find 17 hidden cam ! Owner was female too. She sells the clips on internet sites
Females doing such business models have the best opportunities since they can access female-only areas without raising suspicion or difficulty.
a woman is a woman's worst enemy isn't it?
which country?
Sickening
@@DrErnst Bangladesh
Anyone who would do this is disgusting 🤢 keep your eyes open!
"Keep your eyes open" and find 1/37 cameras?
@@VEE727😂
Employers do it all the time checking their employees. Legally in many countries.
pretty creepy yeah
@@staffanlundberg With hidden cameras? Commercial spaces have visible cameras adnd you know you're being monitored. That's a different thing
Quick band-aid solution if you're worried about cameras but can't really look or are too tired/lazy:
Change clothing under the covers of bed sheeting, or use a mate to hold up the sheets as a makeshift privacy curtain.
ALSO: Do the same when you log in to apps/accounts on your phone!!
Not only do you have to worry about being seen undressed, but criminal spies also can take your logins, id cards, & other info that's within view of a camera.
I stayed at an air bnb in england and found out there was multiple hidden cameras. It was a nightmare because the flat owner was very aggressive and threatening. I was traveling alone.
And...
Bro, why did you confront him? Lmao. You should've call the police right away.
Address pls. I don't wanna end up there.
Did you end up calling the cops ?
@@ShaferHartYou do realize by calling the police the entire police department now has access to your naked videos?
That's why I prefer a room (hotel or otherwise) to be ultra minimalist.
If there are knick knackw, stow them away in cabinets and drawers. Clear the counters and desks.
bro did u see how small the lens it, minimalist doesn't help when it's the size that's almost same as the hole for simcards.
That sounds like a lot of work! What are you worried these supposed cameras might see, anyhow? Do you really think you're doing anything that somebody would be interested in watching?
@@nomadMik Tell us you didn't watch the video without telling us you didn't watch the video
@@nomadMik In a public place, most people will not mind if there is a camera watching them, but in a private room, most normal human beings will not like being watched 24/7. I hope that answered your question.
Cameras can be installed in lamps, air conditioning, light switches, sockets, curtain rods, etc.
Just another reason to promote and demand minimalist interiors for hotel rooms. Maximalist interiors are a potential hotspot for these cameras.
you sound like someone that should never leave their home
Another solution: turn every object in the room back to face the wall.
You think hotels are bad try AirBnB
bro did u see how small the lenses were? minimalist doesn't help when it's almost the size of a hole for simcards.
Scary, uncomfortable times that we're living in. 😮

At first I thought just don’t stay at AirBnB. I guess I’m naive because I was really surprised to see cameras in reputable hotels in the States. That’s really disturbing.
"in the States" exactly, should absolutely expect that, took me less than two weeks living in here to tell its common sense is far different from other sensible cultures. To understand this place, think about maximum profit and the least humane and easiest way to get it that isn't outlawed yet and that's exactly what they will be doing. Neoliberalist capitalism couldn't be further away from decency.
Stayed at a hostel in San Francisco run by Indians who were illegally filming guests. There were outlets halfway up the wall overlooking the bed, cameras in the ceiling fan, broken towel bar and holes in the walls in the bathroom. The mattress had heaters in it they turned on to overheat you so you'd kick off the blankets and sheets.
@@eileenworth7862Must have been in the news. Link?
More likely to see them in reputable hotels since guests and workers can plant them, in a random air bnb, guests can't always come back to grab the footage, aren't guaranteed to have constant business, and the owner is more likely to move the cameras arouns when cleaning instead of placing objects exactly as found like most room cleaners, assuming the roomcleaners even bother to sweep under them when cleaning. DONT STAY IN ANY HOTEL OR BNB RAN BY FOREIGN INDIANS OR CHINESE, most likely places to encounter this kind of thing.
reputable hotels dont discriminate against unreputable people
What a nightmare. It's one of those things you wish was never invented..
Be careful of air vents on ceilings. My partner and I were traveling and stayed one night in a bed & breakfast, she had a strange feeling about a vent on the ceiling above our bed. We couldn't see anything but I stuffed hand towels in the opening. Next day at breakfast, which was a large table and food shared with other guests, a young couple arrived late to eat. The owner made a big deal out of offering them a large hot plate of food from the kitchen, saying 'after last night I'm sure you're both hungry!' We thought this was a really weird comment, all the rest of us were hungry too. When we checked out the guy was cold and reserved with us...disappointed?? We couldn't prove anything but it was disturbing. Now I'd probably get a chair and try to check the ceiling vent better and then call the police if I found a camera.
It's probably impossible to get the owner in trouble now, but have you ever posted a review of that place to warn others? It's not much, but it's something.
@@lurateghTo post a review based on a gut feeling and possibly ruin an innocent person's reputation?
@@lurategh review what? it's his imagination.
@@linsqopiring6816Agree. You’d want to prove the camera exists before mentioning it in a review. Gut feelings are valid but not a substitute for evidence.
@@linsqopiring6816 This gut feeling, aka human intuition, is far more vital to us than you seem to be suggesting. We evolved with it for a reason. It's not just delusion or woo-woo; there's science to back it up. How many times have you followed a gut feeling and were glad you did, or didn't follow it and wished you had?
Gross, Never give money to these creeps regardless of the situation. Report to the police. Even if you give them money, they likely will still release the videos.
They wont release it publicly at least, not until you stop giving them money and more videos to release. Then they will release all to maximize proffits
It's the fucking police that s
Do this. Still I am watched
@@FireFish5000 you are one of them, I can sense it straight from your words
@@tullo5564wtf, why would you think that?? It's true, they wouldn't release it right away, and continually ask for more and more money until you can't/won't pay, and then release it. Stating the obvious doesn't make someone guilty of the crime they're talking about.

I can remember when news stations put a hidden camera in hotel rooms to show that cleaning staff wasn't cleaning the glass water cups in the bathroom. Now we have news crews looking for hidden cameras.
Not cleaning them is better than the one report I saw. The lady "cleaned" it with a used washcloth in the bathroom.
@@thetaekwondoe3887 yeah... Not cleaning them but "cleaning"
@@thetaekwondoe3887never trust public bathrooms and that extends to hotel bathrooms. Staff only cares to make them _look_ clean they don't really care if it's actually clean. They don't care about cross contamination either. It's all disgusting. Never trust public bathrooms.

Missed out on a whole category of cameras like under-display camera. Phones like the ZTE Axon 40 have the camera under the screen. While the image quality is rough, it demonstrates how cameras can be completely invisible behind some glass, which means it could be in the TV screen but also like in the eye of the teddy bear.
Or even a window for that matter. Which is pretty scary stuff!
9:22
I was in an apartment with a Samsung TV in a bedroom. Inside the screen, upper right corner, was a hidden camera. Very hard to see. I spotted when the light from the window reflects the screen. There a round spot. First I thought it was rf for remote control. But I've noticed sometimes it was there, sometimes was not there.

So glad I did my world-wide travels between 1990 to 2001. I could even bring my Swiss army knife in my carry on bag back then (!), you could smile on your passport photo and take your camera (with batteries) on board as well. Travelling solo as a woman was still challenging enough even without hidden cameras.
I did mine between 1999 and 2009, still it was fine. You could still smoke on an airplane at the start of my travels.

@@tomasviane3844 Yeah. Smoking on a plane(!) and those smokers would light up non-stop cause they were nervous about the flight.
I too have fond memories of taking my swiss army knife and pepper spray in my carry on luggage. They even let me take a ging, I told the customs officer it was for my kid brother (I don't have a brother). Solo female traveler from the age of 19...always had to be prepared ;)
and now it's just cyberpunk. rapid, unorganized expansion is always a mistake
We need something that can blind the cameras
... and damage the photo sensors.
A laser light will
@@oldmoviesinbwwithsubtitles3501 That is not really a solution. The laser has to be so strong that if you tried to use it in the rooms they hid the cameras in, you probably would have damaged your own eyes through reflections.
And prevent audio recording by spy devices.
😂
A simple solution: Come with your own tent inside their room and write outside the tent, a big warning sign " we know you are watching." Shower with your clothes on. 😂.
At least give the viewers a hard time. 😂
Lmao, if they leak the footage of me being nude in a room I rightfully rented I'm suing
Might as well stay home if you’re that paranoid lol
Pooping with my pants on has been quite the challenge.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
simply dont turn on the light in the bathroom when using the toilet or shower, I never do that, isnt that hard to find the shampoo bottle or toilet flush in the dark

Used to be you just had to travel with a small UV flashlight to see any spots on your hotel bed/bathroom. Now this :(

80s were the best decade!! Not just for music and culture --- BUT you see, in the 90s, the internet and cellphones were available and a lot more people had access to camcorders. People were already posting stuff online that they shouldn't have in the 90s.
Yes, there wasn't social media and the internet was not anything like it is now but people could still be violated using technology in the 90s a whole lot more than in the 80s.

so when booking my room, should I ask instead of one extra bed to be put inside (which sometimes is possible) to have all the beds removed? lol because I mainly travel in asia ,mostly in Japan, these hotel rooms are SMALL, usually even hard to open my luggage, where to put a tent LOL the bed has to go I guess
They make bed tents. They attach to the bed. Google them@@Yasminh-
It's incredible how small cameras have become over the years. They're damn near microscopic and can fit them almost anywhere!
It's funny how we moved from using these advanced technologies against enemies and spies to using them for voyeurist fetishes. This is a proof, governments have become very weak, and useless.
Absotely, as long as you accept a hit in image quality. If you want high quality results, about 10 mm diameter for the optics is the minimum somewhat acceptable quality. For high end quality the frontmost lens diameter should be at least 40 mm.

Since last year I haven't felt comfortable in AirBnbs anymore... Always feeling like I am, potentially, being recorded so I spend like 15 mins looking all around the room analysing everything
So did you find any camera?
It's easy to do in a clean and relatively empty hotel room to check for unusual holes in the commen places but impossible to do in regular AirBnBs or while couchsurfing.
What they failed to mention was, that it isn't necessary to find all cameras, one is enough, and that a camera won't be normally hidden in a place, that has a bad viewing angle.
AirBnB sucks, anyway. I have never used that company and never will.
It's also legal for AirBnb owners to have hidden cameras, so law enforcement can't actually do much.
@@spledydid7590i think you can if it's in some specific room. Like if it's in bedroom. I think there's a law for it, but idk American law
Never discuss importatnt business in a hotel room.

The thing we forget the most is that we have sick people that will go through the trouble of doing this.

There must be a device that can quickly locate them. The Royals and celebs must have their rooms scanned for devices before they enter ?
Epstein proved that nope lol
Those devices are just a tool. It takes skill and knowledge to do such a search. So if you pay someone, like me, i will do it for 250$/hr. The longer i look, the more likely i will find something.
cry more lol
Imagine how many perverts are spying on people in private/intimate situations, including *CHILDREN.*
Exactly, and way too many people still think it's being paranoid to be aware of and worried about this possibility. It's only gonna get worse and more common as the tech advances.
Scary!! It almost makes people not want to go out in public and become completely hidden, so sad!
And if u being watched at home?
🤣🤔
So turn off the free wifi at any airbnb. If you get a phone call from the host you’ll know something is up.
That, right there, is the best suggestion I've heard.
Won't do anything for the offline cameras that save to SD cards
They will always put a label “dont turn off the wifi”
The cameras can use their own mobile data like a phone.
@@wsketchy SD cards have limited space especially if recording 24/7 in HD... you be lucky to save a few hours.
Great you identified a problem (that we already knew about) and offered no solutions
So add this to the list of things to self-detect. Bedbugs (& fleas & ticks), no working CO alarm, working door lock, germs, escape route, were the sheets changed?, thirdhand smoke, perfumes & BO, etc.

Hold the camera makers and semiconductor companies responsible for the application of their miniature devices. That will put some corporate economic incentives behind stopping these unethical applications of their technology.
I usually just activate a portable emp when I arrive at my air bnb.
The downside is the part where I no longer have air conditioning or television.
The best way to find a hidden camera is to use a non-linear junction detector, the tool-of-choice for Technical Surveillance Cuntermeasure Technicians. This instrument radiates directional radio frequency energy, and the harmonics that are received are measured and compared. The NLJD can find any electronics device, even if it has been cast into cement. Sadly, you won't find these at Walmart.
Where does one study to become a "cuntermeasure technician"?

This is the most useful comment on this thread. Too bad they are so expensive.
Thanks! Yes, they are expensive. Options include renting them, or hiring a TSCM team to do a sweep for you, but these are still not terribly cheap. The "SpyShop" camera detectors are largely just toys, although the colored lens units with lights on them actually work if you are diligent enough to search a every square inch of surfcace. Most covert cameras are going to be installed inside something electronic, so the suspects are things with power cords.@@Ericlco
this popped up in my home page but im so glad i watched it. i was hoping for a happy ending where we have something we can buy to detect ALL cams, sigh.
Crazy and sad how ridiculously easy it is to put cameras anywhere nowadays. Sick mofos get off on that crap, but can obviously be used for blackmail or plain old controlling partner spying 😢
I think it's up to legislators to make these things illegal and put some protections in place like e.g. requiring all cameras to be easily detectable
That's only part of the solution.
What about sick legislators who promote the crap!!!!
Other countries make these cameras that have no rules.
Between this and government cameras it feels overwhelming at times.
The dystopian future is no longer in the future. It's already present.
Government cams can be just of invasive
If you buy or pay for a camera detector, you have wasted your money as 99.9% of them do not detect hidden cameras. Which is fraud on the part of those who profit by selling them.
Or just use a telescope instead.
They do as they should do. It is the user who lacks the knowledge and training to use the tools properly. I never seen such a device NOT work.
radio scanning higher up on the ISO model, radio scanning low on the ISO model, IR scanning and reflective searches? They all are just a little tool, but you have to know how to use them. It is like buying a firearm, then when you shoot your kid in the face, you blame the gun.
you should watch the videon
This report is 5 days old, but the new technology is way more advanced than what they show in this report. The latest technology is to hide the camera in the iPhone speaker holes or the SIM card hole. It acts as the third camera on the phone, it uses the iPhone to record. When not in use, it works normally like a regular iPhone... It can also live-stream the video on the internet!! People are recording them and the girls meet on Tinder or they pay money for... The government still has no clue what is going on ...Sad!
So, it is not only the hotel might have cameras installed, but more importantly, if you sleep with strangers, you cannot tell he is carrying a camera with him!
Or her….
Wow! Thank you for the warning! I wish they would do a video on that as well.
Sounds like someone has modified a phone to position the camera on the edge, where it doesn’t look like the camera is pointing at you. But the phone still has to be there and someone has to turn the recording on and off.
Generally men, I have just googled it and nearly every single person caught was a man, rarely a woman@@absolutelypositively
That's literally a smartphone. There's already a camera in it.
This has been done to women like me for over ten years. I was humiliated and slandered constantly because those doing it then claiming those they did it to were making money by selling or sending their nude photos or videos to people. I couldn't get jobs cause the stalkers would hack my emails and send my nude photos to the businesses. So many people are stalkers and pervs! Ten years ago, hot women had this done constantly, and no one believed them when they said it was being done to them
Easiest way, get a camera with night mode, aka IR, wait until night time, turn on the camera with night mode on and all the IR lights from hidden cameras will be visible when you look through the screen
Thank you!
Make the law / fine so harsh people will think 100 times before using the spy cam. (also for the manufacture). 💀
Won't work. Nobody thinks they will get caught.
Speaking of manufacture, just take apart a dash cam. Only need to save data to an SD card. This action circumvents your manufacture regulations. Then the fining the people, the issue is finding the devices in the first place.
You cannot charge the company that makes the item. It would be like charging every gun manufacturing company every time someone pulls the trigger of one of their guns.
You can only charge the person who commits the crime not the people who make the product.
The deterrent is the odds of getting caught.
Literally. Would be fine with life imprisonment for these ppl
Best solution: Bring a tent with you and don't shower!

It seems that it is safer to go outside nude in public than in a hotel room equipped with covert cameras.
Wish you had showed each camera hidden as a closeup and back a few feet !!
Exactly, show everyone how to detect these devices on our own, using telltale characteristics, clues, etc.
There's some form of comfort in ignorance is bliss i guess.
If some random people you will never meet have seen your video and you never find out about it, your life will go on unchanged.
Unless they try to extort you for money.

Sometimes it's used for other stuff, such as when you're talking with someone and divulge personal information, passwords etc. other times it's for active crime if it's connected to the net. The perp can see when you're the most vulnerable, where you left the keys/cash, or follow/track you.
If it's your own house and you give information to people consenting to indoor security for Airbnb/renting then that's fine but otherwise it's obviously intrusive, illegal and awful, nearly as bad or worse than your smartphone pryed on by the gov companies and 3rd parties.

That literally happened when I was representing a victim of child abuse. I told them to publish it and see what happened to them.

Never got so much as a peep from her since.
Ok, the teen that found the “hidden camera” in the plane toilet was preeeeeeeetty hard to miss. It was taped to the toilet lid with the flash on
Why do people call them bathrooms..? Pretty hard to fit a bath in there 🤣
@@TestGearJunkie. At home in the USA, the room with the bath is most likely the room with the toilet. We use toilets more than baths, so we associate toilet with "bathroom" because we spend our lives going to the bathroom to use the toilet. Even to the point that a room with a toilet and sink, but no bath or shower, is officially called a half bath. It may be different in other parts of the world where many houses are so old that they were built before indoor plumbing and so have toilets, baths, and sinks stashed wherever they can fit individually instead of all together in one room.
@@mailleweaver Hmmm. I say I'm going to the toilet. Or going to have a bath, whichever is the case. The fact that both are in the same room is irrelevant. I just don't see how you can call a room that doesn't have a bath, a bathroom.
@@TestGearJunkie. It's simply one of those things that stuck. Even if it's not literally a bathroom with a bath, it's still a bathroom to us, or also a restroom if it's a public place. I know other places have similar quirks when it comes to what terms are commonplace.
@@lurategh It just seems weird to me being from the UK. I remember the first time I stayed with friends in San Francisco and they said my room had a half bath. I said what..? How can you have half a bath..? I know what they meant now, but it's still weird to me 🤣

Seems the take-away from this is that if you want to secretly record people, it’s pretty easy to accomplish.
Not sure that’s a message that’s useful to covey.
Nice, now im gonna use these like hell
Then why did you convey it?
You also need to be caught only once to be imprisoned; that's especially true if you use cameras with SD cards and/or battery
Left out here is that these cameras need the energy and either a connection or the card to be taken out what makes it harder to use them than in this setting
yes, but this problem seems inevitable, if they don't talk about it in it's early stage then it would get worse in the future
The learning is that you should always behave like you are being watched, and when you are naked or your partner is naked, make sure you are covered by a sheet and when going to the toilet or taking a shower, first turn off the lights.
People are sick
We all know the real solution is to build a pillow fort in every AirBnb and hotel room you visit.
I’m becoming more and more of a hermit. 😩

The only solution is to only stay in the properties you built yourself and are continually monitoring when away. So only billionaires are safe.
How should people monitor their properties, I wonder.
Billionaires are not safe too. How sure are they that the plumber, electrician, etc that have come into the house haven’t installed one. It’s a scary world that we live in and it’s getting scarier by the day :(
@@Sara.Rose.Some have the solution just for this
We are past the point where we are carrying “hidden” cameras everywhere we go. Furthermore, the technology of cameras are so sophisticated that you can place them on drones far away enough from being spotted or heard and I’m sure the quality is crystal clear.
Hm. Watching this video reminds me of a time when I was working over and after lockdown doing bicycle delivery and for some reason there was this Chinese guy who used to hang out with a few of the other guys I used to work with who started to follow me around and hanging around on his own looking for me when the other guys weren't even there, and he had no reason to even be in my city since he lived in another city. His behaviour went from being a random guy hanging out with the other guys, to acting like he had singled me out and was trying to stalk me. At one point he told me he wanted to give me a lift in his car, which was a Mercedez to show off and I made the mistake to accept. I told him I had a boyfriend already in the expectation he would understand that I was taken and that he could just let me ride in his car just out of curiousity as a mate and nothing else. Then when he had me in private in the car, he told me how I could go and stay in his apartment he rented out in Manchester as an airBRB with my boyfriend, and told me how he had a piano there and how he would like to watch me playing the piano and wanted to film me. Then he just dropped into the conversation how he had cameras in the apartment and how he would like to film me and my boyfriend, jokingly. I didn't say anything and said nothing and didn't take him seriously. But then when he dropped me off I just made a mental note to avoid him after that. Then I left my job and didn't see him again. Thinking about it now, it's making me wonder how come he had so much money to have a grand piano and a Mercedez and why he was joking about 'wanting to film me and my boyfriend'. It's making me think, it's possible he was one of those same kind of Chinese guys filming people covertly in his Airbnb apartment and potentially selling the videos to porno channels or whatever, and that's how he made his money. He didn't seem to do anything else apart from just hang around on street corners doing nothing beyond acting creepy. I'm thinking now, maybe I should have reported him to the police to be investigated, because he even confessed himself with his own words he wanted to film me and my boyfriend in his airbnb, so there's every possible chance he had already done it to other people, and his 'joke' was actually an admission of what he had already in real life. Eek. Some guys are just so gross.😕
That room looks like a giant dollhouse.
This is illegal. Invading someone's privacy.
Yeah, there are people out there looking to ruin your life. Trust me on that.
I found one of these in an AirBnB I stayed in. I reported it immediately and switched properties. AirBnB didn’t even seem that concerned about it.
This video is what I'm looking for YEARS, thanks a lot
Did you find it yet?
No, I think you were looking for a video that showed solutions. This video mainly showed how hard they are to detect even if you know they are there.
He's only able to find them bc he's told there are cameras in there, normally if you're not informed, forget it.
Seeing videos like this comforts me that our government won't spend millions of dollars on secret mass surveillance when we do it so well ourselves, and for free!
that's cute, they spend billions already
Stop looking to “the government” for help and comfort. 🙄

Turn off the lights and close the drapes and use your phone to look for IR illuminators
countermeasures are a must. Location, probability, and trust are factors. On countermeasures, turning out all lights and switching your cellphone to video mode will uncover cameras that use infrared light to capture in the dark. Another step, turn on your cellphone wifi or bluetooth and looking at what is shown. If you are in a hotel that provides free wifi look for signals outside of those. If you are in a hotel room and you see bluetooth devices where none should be that's a hint. Your office that has dust on picture frames is a great way of noticing tampering if you see it cleaned or fingerprints. Office ceilings debris on the floor means tampering in the ceiling. Lastly, expect familiar objects to have been tampered with, squeeze plushies, shake picture frames, maneuver objects a fraction to throw off cameras ability to capture field of view (if there's no way to really tell).
Just always assume there is a camera.

Do you search for hidden cameras when you travel? Why or why not?
My entire life and the life of my family were put in danger when I became a victim of a white-collar crime involving people at a company that offered me employment combined with a studio apartment to stay in during my relocation period. They wanted to frame me for something big and used hidden cameras to watch me inside that studio apartment and listen to all my conversations. I discovered one of the cameras by pure coincide when I walked in the middle of the night to the toilet without turning the light on.
I will leave what happened next to your imagination.
( This happened in a major city in the french speaking part of Switzerland. )
Who needs to travel? People can copy your house or apartment keys and plant cameras in your place while you’re gone. The same with getting inside of cars.

Oh nononono, I show my best side and let them enjoy my body.

In Eastern Europe this is common. When you hide cash and valuables in a hotel room, they are watching and it goes missing.
