    It’s a nice feature to have but risky. I know a few people with security cameras accessible through internet, I’m sure any of them not only don’t have the knowledge to detect if someone else have access to their cameras but the possibility haven’t crossed their minds.
    I definitely lack those abilities so I would air gap the hell out of the entire system.

      What about an indicator that shows when someone is using the camera?(but in Hardware so it can’t be hacked). And maybe add a controll panel somewhere so you can disable them as soon as you come home.

        I think most people who have security cameras want them recording, because you don’t know when you’ll need it. Having a camera that records when you know it needs to be means you already know there’s something going on, which is often the opposite case for a security camera which is to notify you when something you don’t know it’s happening happens, or at least something you don’t expect.

        That having been said, I don’t have one because I’m not nuts, and if I did I’d at least cover it before changing in front of it, but whatever I guess!
