What if all the motion sensors in restrooms are secretly cameras?

  They are, but it’s literally a single pixel video resolution and a really low frame rate.

    And ir only. They are (usually) just thermal sensors.

  I used to think that when I was a kid. I thought it was someone’s job to watch you go to the bathroom, and then flush the toilet for you when you were done…

    Did you also think that many of those people were quite terrible at their jobs?

  Then being naked on camera is not nearly as big a deal as you think it is, because it’s been happening for a long time with no negative consequences.

  So they have a lot of video of people washing their hands?

    I don’t know about you, but I don’t wash my hands in the toilet.

      I’ve never seen a motion sensor in the stall with me. They are usually on the wall by the door where you enter, so even with the urinals they would only get your back.

    Where are you hanging out? Everyone seems normal enough (at least by internet standards)

  I was downvoted to fuck when I suggested this as a conspiracy theory on reddit. One of the reasons I left that place, because of the toxicity. I thought it was a thought that might have had some merit. You don’t really know what’s behind the glass on that sensor.

    But tbh I think the risk to reward ratio wouldn’t be worth it for a bit still (at least until electronics get a bit more user friendly)

    You’d have to be capable enough to be able to fuck around with microelectronics (which a convinced enough hobbiest could do), horny enough to put a large amount of that effort solely to being horny (even when youre smucking around in the stinky toilet electronics), confident enough to know you electronics will truely be undetectable (or just dumb/rich enough - though with greater risk), a bit sociopathic to not care about peoples privacy at all, and finally own a public enough place you can implement all this.

    I feel like that’s a reasonably small subset of people, so personally I’m willing to risk them catching a low res video of my shitty asshole.

    That being said I dont want to discredit youre theory, just give my take on it

  I mean, if you want to watch me pooping in my bathroom, I’ve got an Onlyfans account for that, just pay me and stop trying to cheap out.
