Has your house been on the market in the past 20-25 years? If so, Zillow and others still publicly show the interior photos from that marketing campaign.

Tech bros and cops can’t put a stop to their constant spy kink. This only seems to affect properties with public listings to source photos from, but if you have any sort of cloud-connected cameras in your home, get rid of them now. I guarantee they will use those cameras the same way to compare against archived realtor listings.

The cops would still need a reference photo to compare to though and they aren’t getting into my house for that shit. Getting in is easier when it’s a rental property because a landlord holds the keys.

Nobody inside your home ever takes photos and posts them to social media?

Neither my wife nor I post photos to social media, and we almost never have people over. If we do, it’s usually folks that are equally disconnected from social media as much as we are (we have a tiny friend circle). But I’m also aware that we’re among the minority here. I deleted all of my social accounts years ago, so the tracking network for me has reduced quite a bit, but it will never be 0 in this day and age.

That’s not what it’s for.
The purpose of this is to take your social media post of you standing with a gun and a sign that says ‘all cops must die’, and then using the background of that photo to identify and locate your house.

That’s a pretty dumb thing to post. The people I usually see posting pics of themselves with guns are righties.

It really shouldn’t take anything like this for someone to get rid of their cameras. Did everyone forget Eufy’s camera feeds being publicly available?
Security systems (and baby/pet monitors) should be local network only. If it needs an internet connection, don’t bother with it. If you need access to the feed from outside your home network, then just run something like Tailscale.

A CCTV setup with Tailscale is what I eventually want. Right now I don’t have anything.
