is it illegal to hide cameras in your own house?
Depends on location. Camera in the kitchen, no problem. Camera in the guest bathroom pointing at the shower, problem.

This is what I’m thinking.
So if you have cameras set up in your house (not the bathroom) and someone gets undressed in one of the rooms, is that voyeurism?
The bathroom thing I can understand but this shite arse article is poorly written

You do have the right to record video inside your home without telling anyone, but—well, there are two big buts. The first: You can’t record video in any location where a person would expect to have a high degree of privacy. Those places should be pretty obvious, as noted earlier—bedrooms and bathrooms are clear examples, as is a changing room if you have a pool. But what if a guest is sleeping on your sofa, and likely using that room to dress? The author of this Fusion article describes that very situation: A person sleeping on a friend’s sofa for a few weeks discovered that she was being recorded by a Dropcam (the precursor to the Nest Cam). The situation is murky, because although it was a living room—the most public room in a home—it served as a de facto bedroom for the time the guest was using it. What makes this case even murkier is the technology involved.
Also, I think it turns into a wiretapping issue if you record audio.

The irony of 3 out of the 6 links under that story on WBRZ being ads for cameras you literally just screw into a socket:
One day everyone here will understand how targeted advertising works.

Well this makes it even more confusing.
So if I put a nanny cam in the living room, and the babysitter takes her clothes off and does her BF on the couch, suddenly I’d be at fault?

Sounds like I have seen the inside of your house on one of those free internet sites.
What color is your couch and what color is your babysitters hair?

It probably depends on what you do with the video at that point. If you share it with others, there's probably some sort of expectation of privacy that you're violating. If you just delete it, or hell if you just keep it but keep it to yourself, then I'm sure you're fine.

FWIW, Ive never used a nanny cam nor do I employ sexy babysitters. It’s just a hypothetical.
It just seems like a can of worms on what you can and can’t record inside your own home.
Like a scenario where you have hidden cameras set up in your own bedroom (wasn’t that a whole premise in the show Coupling?) and then an underage thief breaks in and takes off all their clothes in your bedroom, and screws your pillow or something, you couldn’t possibly be arrested for that could you?

Update:
quote:
DENHAM SPRINGS - Security cameras are visible from the outside of the home where a woman says 38-year-old Christopher Johnson installed a secret camera that looks like a cell phone charger in the bathroom they used to share.
The woman tells WBRZ she lived in the home with Johnson until he moved out in July of 2021.
She says a couple months after he moved out, he gave her an SD card he thought contained pictures of a deceased family member.
Instead, she says she found hundreds of videos of her, her mother, their children and other guests using the bathroom. Johnson is facing 40 counts of video voyeurism stemming from the hidden camera.
"Video Voyeurism is a crime in Louisiana. It prohibits the video taping of folks when they don't know it," attorney Chase Tettleton with Babcock Injury Lawyers said.
Tettleton explained the law backing the charges. He explained even with Johnson owning the house, laws don't allow someone, like a guest, to be secretly recorded in a bathroom.

As it should be. I'm not sure what some don't seem to be getting here.

This seems like a terribly written law. It has to depend on context, right? Otherwise you’d have to notify thieves they were being filmed or they’d have a case against you
