I found this out by accident...I don't think I was ever meant to know.
Anyway, I knew my neighbour had CCTV installed, and recently found out that it covers all of my driveway, and a lot of my garden.
I've even heard / seen the camera swivel when I was in the hot tub!
Pretty sure that's not allowed.
But I've more recently found out, that their CCTV also records sound, even the teeniest noise is picked up.
On a rare day off, I've had what I thought were private conversations with friends in the top corner of my garden, when everyone else was at work.
As it turns out, every single word will have been recorded.
I feel violated.
He particular, is a bit of a nerd, and is obsessed with knowing everything about everyone on the estate.
He gives me the creeps.
I can't even speak freely on my drive or in my garden as I know it is all being caught on CCTV.
I could report it, but he could easily say he's disabled the noise recorder, and I would never know if he has or not.
I'm pretty sure it's not legal to record noise, and also have their CCTV literally covering so much of my property.
I have no privacy at all and it's really starting to get to me.
I avoid areas in my garden I know he can see and I don't say very much when I'm outside or have the windows / doors open.
He has his nose in to everything around here and I've really had enough.
I don't know what I can do tbh.
Like I said, I could report it, but that won't stop him re-enabling it.
I just wish he'd piss off and move house, but I'm not that lucky!
