My mom is in assisted living and I have a suspicion that the staff, or perhaps a resident, is taking her money. I need something that won’t look out of place and isn’t easily disabled, maybe it plays possum when unplugged but has battery backup. Anyone have any advice?

    Outdoors are generally not protected by right to privacy, even if on private property.

    Someone standing in their own front lawn can be recorded with both video and audio without their consent.

    This is what makes it legal to record police.

      Hmm, interesting. A lot of things make more sense now.

      I think there should be protections a bit stronger than that, at least. You’re forced to go outside to basically live life. If you have a situation where you’re forced to pass through someone else’s property by geometry they lose their right to stop you, and something similar should apply here.
