Hello everyone,

What are your thoughts on security cameras? I am considering installing two outside. I have already looked through the websites of the regional data protection authorities and noted the essentials (notice sign, deletion policy, masking public areas, etc.). The main goal is deterrence and to be informed about what happens when I am away.

Do you have cameras on your property or even more, like an alarm system? What are your reasons for or against them?

Thank you and best regards,

We also have several cameras, and external access is done by setting up a VPN connection to the local network. This works perfectly without the need for external service providers and is secure.

Encrypted communication, such as VPNs, is generally not freely accessible on the internet and is indeed one of the ways to handle the situation.
