I’m usually not that paranoid. I don’t think that the NSA is listening to my calls and I never feel as though as I’m being followed. But even if I have to admit that I have thought about the possibility of there being hidden cameras in the hotel or Airbnb I’m staying in.
The same goes for public places. Gym locker rooms. Mall changing rooms. There’s a million and one different places to hide a camera. And not just in a perverted way. Undercover cops, investigative reporters, even enterprising citizens with a cell phone camera that’s within range of a celebrity – everywhere you look there could be a concealed camera watching your every move. Your laptop’s very own webcam could even be spying on you at this very moment while you read this.
Conditions surrounding your lack of privacy aren’t likely to improve anytime soon either. As technology gets smaller and smaller and tiny sensors become more and more ubiquitous it’s just going to get easier and easier for people to plant detection and monitoring devices without being noticed.
Thankfully there will soon be something you can do about it. A new technology that’s capable of finally giving you peace of mind.
According to Mental Floss, “Spy Associates, a maker of surveillance and privacy protection products, has designed a product that will help put worried travelers’ minds at ease. The company’s SpyFinderPro Hidden Camera Detector uses LED strobe lights to ferret out the reflective surfaces of various kinds of cameras. The company says the gadget works even when cameras are undetectable to the human eye, and even when they’re turned off or non-functioning.”
Such a technology, if it really does work as advertised, would be a total game-changer. Allowing people to be free from the prying eyes of peeping Toms everywhere once and for all.
Is a hidden camera detector the Greatest Idea Ever?
