How not to get on a hidden camera in the hotel room: expert advice
Scandals are raging around the world related to the distribution of video on the Internet about the privacy of hotel guests.
Recordings are made without the knowledge of the actors using high-resolution video cameras, and sound is also recorded. In thirty hotels in South Korea, hidden cameras were found that recorded guests for an erotic website.
More than 1,600 unsuspecting hotel guests in South Korea have been hit by hidden cameras. The video stream was streamed live to a paid specialized website.
According to local media reports, two men were arrested by police for installing recording devices. Cameras found in 30 hotels in ten cities of the country. According to police, hotels are not involved in the scandal. Criminals hid tiny cameras in hard-to-reach places: wall outlets, hair dryer holders, set-top boxes for TVs.
The cameras were delivered between November 2018 and early March this year. The hotel camera scandal comes along with South Korean protests sparked by covert filming of women in public spaces called "milk."
Similar stories happen in other countries. In 2018, in a rented apartment, a British couple discovered a hidden camera in an alarm clock. In 2016, in Florida, hotel guests found a camera in a fire detector.
Experts give tips to help find hidden cameras in a hotel room or rental apartment. Pay attention to unusual objects in the bathroom or pointed at the bed. Explore the bookshelves and cornices. Some cameras are sensitive to movement, so watch out for the firefly that occurs when you move around the room - the devices emit red, blue, green light.
