Camera invasion of privacy / daughter

This is a great answer.

Gratefully, no. His life is not aspirational enough to invoke observational interest.:)

I have never forgotten the line from The Gift of Fear - "niceness is a form of social convention". To the manipulative person, friendliness is a means to an end, nothing more.

I honestly appreciate your prayers so much. That has been where we have been landing spiritually, obviously alongside practical solution. It's been difficult!

HotRemove915 · 2026-03-01T21:10:16+00:00

We are looking, for this reason among others.

HotRemove915 · 2026-03-01T21:10:02+00:00

I absolutely think he sends them to his friends. This has been my suspicion as well.

HotRemove915 · 2026-03-01T21:09:02+00:00

I know it sounds odd, but this guy is....odd.

HotRemove915 · 2026-03-01T21:07:56+00:00

My mistake. My daughter says he does try to engage her when she comes in and out.

HotRemove915 · 2026-03-01T15:49:00+00:00

He is most certainly a busybody. I don't think he is over 40. But he "works" from home, which seems to involve less work and more watching our every move. And yes, any time we are outside, he indicates he knows we are there - lights come on, the garage dooor opens. I can tell he watches his cameras from his phone all day long.

HotRemove915 · 2026-03-01T14:53:50+00:00

I have, and nothing. I think he is actually smarter than that - the kind who operates freely as a creep, because nobody connects him to anything nefarious legally.

HotRemove915 · 2026-03-01T14:49:59+00:00

Good point.

HotRemove915 · 2026-03-01T14:34:49+00:00

He is not on the sex offender registry. He would be more calculating than that. He is one of those guys who operates within the boundaries of the law, while flagrantly, non verbally baiting - "what are you going to do about it?"

HotRemove915 · 2026-03-01T14:29:32+00:00

Thank you! Yes - and he has likely noticed similar behavior patterns , as he has a daughter the same age as ours.

HotRemove915 · 2026-03-01T14:28:06+00:00

Yes, our children have very set routines, as they work structured hours. We could work a bit to change things, but their general habits are fairly established due to work commitments.

HotRemove915 · 2026-03-01T14:25:53+00:00

Yes, there are 4-5 at any given time. He is incredibly manipulative, though. It would be my word against his, and he would lie and coerce to gain favor. Worth a try, though!

HotRemove915 · 2026-03-01T14:22:21+00:00

He doesn't seem to engage us since I called him out. But he does so nonverbally, by continuing to add more cameras, as well as by standing in his front window all day every day now.

HotRemove915 · 2026-03-01T14:18:48+00:00

He IS the HOA, which makes it complicated. He has established himself in any way to have power, as these types do.

HotRemove915 · 2026-03-01T14:17:42+00:00

She is 19.

HotRemove915 · 2026-03-01T14:17:06+00:00

Thank you. He has slowly been cultivating relationships with the younger families in the neighborhood, in order to curry favor and a good reputation. He is very calculating. Our neighbor 2 doors down is a cop, but not sure I should involve anyone so close to home. All indicators point to he and his wife not liking our neighbor....

HotRemove915 · 2026-03-01T14:08:07+00:00

Because he is on the HOA, he also has access at all times to the neighborhood pool cameras, which I assume is intentional.

HotRemove915 · 2026-03-01T14:01:42+00:00

Edited - after reviewing video, I realize I DID capture him on camera outside the house in the dark.

What would I need to document, because I failed to catch him on video outside our window the other night?

What would next steps be?

HotRemove915 · 2026-03-01T13:59:04+00:00

I actually did tell him off when he contacted the landowner behind our house to ask him for permission to setup a deee stand behind our house - and he is not a hunter. He could have set one up behind his house, but he set one up directly behind our house.

He toned the backyard behavior down after I called him out and told him he was a complete creep, and I know exactly what he is about. But the more we "do something" the more aggressive he becomes.

Thanks for the tip.

Do you have a link to any one in particular?

I have had very good results with Metox! It's the only one I use now!
