Why does HF sell this?

These exist for the same reason that radar detectors exist. It's called ECM (electronic countermeasures).

Why not? :)

I probably wouldn't buy one for myself, but then, anybody putting up a minicam to watch me is risking getting fired for sleeping on the job -- from sheer boredom!

Might try to kick the sucker's ass for invading my privacy, though.

They sell it to make a profit, same reason as the guy who manufacturers it-

Why does a dog lick his ass?

To get that nasty mailman taste out of his mouth?

No silly wabbit . . Because he can! :-)

For paranoid people? For people who think their bosses may have put surveillance cameras on them without their knowledge? For people who want to sue someone in case they are filming where they aren't supposed to? For people who do security work where it would be good to know if there are secret cameras?

All sorts of reasons.

In Montgomery county, Texas, a dry cleaner put a camera in a unisex bathroom. He filmed young female employees, and stupidly stored the images on his camera.

Case is now pending, but it doesn't look good for him.

A male employee went in there, and before he could turn on the light, saw a small blinking red light in the space above the suspended ceiling. He alerted police, who arrested the dry cleaner. I imagine the man will get a few bucks compensation for emotional distress.

How much does it cost? ERS

No, "because he can" is why he licks his dick/balls.

The detectors cost $21.99 on

Maybe it's just me, but I'll tell ya, there's nothing that goes on in a public restroom, unisex or otherwise that I'd

If you own the building and can access the ceiling, there's not much reason to go with a wireless camera. Pinhole cameras installed above a ceiling tile are very hard to see and only a knucklehead would use a camera with a blinking red light.

Yeah, whatever, if you want. While you're at it can you give me a hand manhandling my new (ex-Ebay) 4 1/2 cwt anvil into the workshop?

Drat. I knew there had to be a catch. Oh well, back to making a harness for the kids and getting the whip out.

Right name-wrong country. I'm in England (even though my eldest daughter is called Kimberley Rand :-)

Trouble with England is that it's so small that you could make holes in people's beer cans across the other side of the country even with a BB gun. I quite like rudimentary self-defence tools ( beer bottles, 4-D Maglite torches, steel toecaps etc.)

On the Harness for the kids, I was thinking of coupling them up directly to the anvil. They haven't got far to drag it to the workshop and I'm sure they'll do it to help their poor old dad. I'll do the difficult bits, like telling them where to put it.
