This one really creeps me out https://www.amazon.com/Screw-Head-Mini-Hidden-Camera/dp/B014...

How often do you really pay attention to screws?



> How often do you really pay attention to screws?

I’d like to imagine someone install one of these in the middle of an otherwise clean white wall, where it’ll stick out like a sore thumb :p


I spent a short moment now looking around the office for the best spot a would-be creep could install a hidden camera. I realized two things:

- There ain't that many things with visible, people-facing screws these days.

- Even if you found one (e.g. a back of a LCD screen), you'd have to match the screw in size and color, or it would stick out.

I guess this method is best used when you control the entire object in which a screw-camera is to be embedded.


Somewhere on Amazon there is a screw camera that has a product photo of the camera installed on what appears to be a bathroom stall door. I can’t find it right now, but it totally blew me away that they’d be so blatant.


yeah and leds
