Neighbour installed a camera pointing at my house/ window

With hovering drones now available on the internet for cheap, expect more of this kind of neighbourly nonsense. Make sure your drapes are closed.

I like the laser pointer idea better.

Those things are pretty awesome.

Just speaking from professional experience.

you video inside of peoples houses? hmmmmmmm

You'll notice that the GUIDELINES on privacy from the Commissioner are GUIDELINES, not laws. And they are meant as a PR exercise.

If our government really, really wanted to protect our privacy, they would have made laws, not guidelines. Guidelines are nothing. They make people think that they have privacy, while at the same time giving them no protection. Never trust a government who give you guidelines. Only believe laws.

Well, I guess you could always adopt the Kramer/Neuman philosophy.

If you dont want people looking in your windows (via video!) close your blinds !

Problem solved, next problem please.

Or hire a Lawyer and file an invasion of privacy suit.
There fixed it for ya!

I think the OP may be looking for a solution to his problem. And I'd say most of you would also be feeling upset if something like this happened to you.

I put up cameras on all sides of my home and I was meticulous in making sure that no part of my neighbours homes where in view.
I even invited them in to see for them selves as I cycled through the cameras.
Anything less is just a plain ignorant neighbour.

I'm comfortable in my underwear. You should come by some time and look in my windows. Or not.

Underwear? At home? Blasphemy.

I second the laser pointer idea.

Dickish but completely legal. The onus is on the homeowner to create a private space. If you want privacy, close your blinds. This would never in a million years get to court. The court wouldn't spend longer than 10 seconds deciding to decline considering it.

In the event that he does not co-operate , a lazer pointer is only a few bucks and will take care of the camera.

Yeah, don't do that. You'll be the one ending up with tickets and/or in court. A camera has no emissions. It's rude and not very neighbourly, but fundamentally it's just capturing what is already there. A laser pointer shining ONTO property is very, very different. Laser pointers outside are taken very seriously especially re: reflections and planes. Don't do it.
