Judge: Amazon “cannot claim shock” that bathroom spycams were used as advertised
Judge: Amazon “cannot claim shock” that bathroom spycams were used as advertised
A West Virginia judge largely denied Amazon's motion to dismiss lawsuit.
Tech legal expert Eric Goldman wrote that a victory for the plaintiff could be considered "a dangerous ruling for the spy cam industry and for Amazon," because "the court’s analysis could indicate that all surreptitious hook cameras are categorically illegal to sell." That could prevent completely legal uses of cameras designed to look like clothes hooks, Goldman wrote, such as hypothetical in-home surveillance uses.
You're viewing a single thread.
They make a good point. If you sell someone a camera that specifically looks like a towel hook, where would you expect them to use it? I can't speak for anyone else, but I don't generally put up towel hooks in the living room or the garage...
And show pictures of it used in a bathroom.
"Your honor, we thought it was an entryway coat hanger."
- Amazon, probably.
Neither here nor there, but suction cup towel hooks in the kitchen are amazing. Dropping every towel on the ground every time you open the oven and then pretending they’re clean enough to dry your hands is just silly. Amazon should be culpable for selling tailored voyeurism tools.
Is your floor that dirty?
You don't walk on your floor?
You walk around the kitchen with muddy boots? I have house slippers like a civilized person. I also don't live in a bubble and I don't sweat the small stuff.
No, I usually go barefoot. And I have three kids and two cats. I don't keep my home to model standards, no. I live there.
I don't keep my home to model standards
But you do keep your tea towels to such standards 😋
I don't know about the rest of it but house slippers?!? You can't get away with just slipping that in there. Why do you have shoes for your house?!?!? How dirty do you keep it in there??? 🤣
Bruh you never just want to have warm cozy feet?
I keep it clean by taking my outdoor shoes off. I highly recommend these
Two things little bit more seriously. One is that I have people take off their shoes in my house so that I can walk around barefoot and not get my feet all filthy.
While I prefer not to have things on my feet I do admit those look pretty comfortable.
No I just don't use my oven
Cleaner than the overwhelming majority of kitchens. Most people are just gross and don’t realize it. You drop a piece of food on the ground, you wash it to get the hair and dust off. You drop a towel on the ground several times while handling food and somehow the same doesn’t apply. It’s cognitive dissonance.
