Kind of incredible that this still continues. They at least give some kind of cover for the use case of a "baby camera" but honestly even that feels so flimsy. This is disturbing.
Yeah, but I mean I assume the people selling date rape drugs do a bit of wink, wink, nod, nod, thing too. Do you think literally a single person bought this and used it as a nanny cam? I think I can imagine, maybe it got used outside of a bathroom, or got used by people play acting hidden cameras, aka used with everyone's consent, but I don't think it gets much worse than this, except maybe for this other product amazon still sells https://www.amazon.com/Bathroom-Shower-Security-Cameras-Outd...
How about this shower head spy camera? Does it take more than a minute to figure out how this might violate someone's privacy?
