One of my neighbors has a completely open camera in their front yard lol. I've left a note on the door giving them a heads up but I guess they don't care or don't know what to do about it. I only know because my app is always adding their stupid camera when it "detects a new device" and I have to go in and remove it every time. So far their cOnsEQuenCeS have just been me briefly admiring their pretty garden the first time I noticed it and opened the camera to figure out who it was and warn them lol. If someone got into mine I hope they enjoy the random feral cats wandering through my ugly barren yard 🤷‍♀️

I'd never leave any camera inside my home it would creep me out too much. I don't see what harm the cams facing the exterior entrances to my house could possibly cause.
