    Hot take : almost no one actually needs security cameras in their home.

    For the very few who do, visible fake cameras do 95% of the job of real cameras with none of the drawbacks.

      The only drawbacks to having actual security cameras is when you trust your data to a 3rd party known to use your data for evil.

      If you record things locally, there’s really zero drawbacks.
