When I started looking at the options, though, everything felt very invasive—I don't want to feel like a star in my own security camera footage! Is there a happy medium between no security at all and feeling like I'm constantly on camera?   A: This is an absolutely valid concern, and not an uncommon one. Most people don't want to feel like they're being monitored all the time, and some people even hide from their own doorbell cameras so they don't have to see what they look like!

Companies Tesla Inc Follow AMSTERDAM, Feb 22 (Reuters) - The Dutch personal data watchdog said on Wednesday it would not fine Tesla Inc. (TSLA.O) over possible privacy violations after the U.S. carmaker made changes to vehicle security cameras. Tesla uses such cameras in its cars to help owners protect them against theft or vandalism, but the Dutch Data Protection Authority (DPA) investigated them as a potential violation. "Many Teslas parked on the street were often filming everyone who came near the vehicle, and these images were being saved for a very long time.

Tesla could not immediately be reached for comment. The agency said Tesla had made changes to its "Sentry Mode" feature in which the cameras are activated since the DPA investigation began. These include the cars' headlights flashing t...

The proliferation of devices creates more opportunities for people to lose access or power over aspects of the home. On the first night in his new home, Clint Basinger was unpacking a few stray boxes in the living room, when out of nowhere at around midnight, he heard a voice echoing down the hallway from the other side of the house. "Good night," the voice said. "It's bedtime." Then, he heard the sound of locks clicking. "I couldn't do anything with the doors, all the windows were armed, all the motion sensors turned on," said Mr. Basinger, who had spent 15 years saving up to buy the three-bedroom, split-level house in Asheville, N.C. "I had no clue what to do, so I just stayed locked inside the house that night." Turns out, the home's previous owner had installed a smart security system that he neglected to tell Mr. Basinger about. "It was really disconcerting, being in a new place and having no control over what was happenin...
