A tip for anyone paranoid. Turn off all of the lights in the room you’re staying in and shimmer your phone light around the room. Camera lenses are extremely reflective and you’ll be able to see abnormal circular reflections popping off of any cameras.
Stop what your doing immediately. I want you all to know this: My uncle got busted for sleeping in the chuck-E-cheese ball pit drunk. Yeah Idk why he likes to do his mafia business there.
This is something I’ve always been afraid of in hotels and airbnbs. Especially in s. Korea it’s almost common for men to put tiny pin point cameras in toilets, even in public bathrooms! And in Japan too, like glasses that are cameras and stuff, and other things designed to get like upskirt photos. I saw a video from a Korean woman talking about how she recommends everyone coming to visit/live in Korea to get this little credit card sized piece of red plastic that when you look through it you can see the cameras. I’ve been freaked about it ever since. Especially since I saw that video AFTER I visited both Japan and South Korea!
Are there no laws in Japan and/or South Korea against this? Like if you discover those hidden cameras or someone trying to get an upskirt photo can you call the police?
My girlfriend bruised her tailbone and I made one joke about buying one of those donuts you sit on and less than 3 hours later was seeing adds for butt cushions
My bf asked me if I thought about buying an arcade machine and I told him I'd love to buy a pinball machine but they are too expensive the last time I looked. The next day there was a banner in my email for "low cost real pinball machines". I did not click, as much as I wanted to, because I did not want to reward this behavior.
That happened to me. I was getting my hair done and asked my hair girl about a shampoo I saw on her counter. By the time I got home that night I had an ad for it. I also had someone randomly mention reiki to me because they were an instructor. I hadn’t been looking into it or anything, it was a stranger I bumped into that brought it up. I had ads for reiki classes within an hour on my phone.
A few years ago, I was explaining what the eggplant emoji meant to an older person and within the HOUR I had ads for sending a whole arse eggplant in the mail to someone with a personal message carved in to it.

I hope you're talking about your own experience being behind said door XD Otherwise you've just accidentally incriminated yourself, or admitted to having X-Ray vision.
Chill out, what ya yellin' for? Lay back, it's all been done before. And if you could only let it be, you will see that I am the funniest YouT*ber of all time. Admit it, my dear follow*r lil
Actually those cameras really do exist in surprisingly amazing high def quality. The reason you don't see it in supermarkets and courtrooms and other places is the storage. Stores and government facilities typically need to house multiple days/weeks worth of video from all their cameras. The storage costs for that much video gets INSANE. So most bigger establishments will run low res video feeds for long term storage and might have a couple high def cams for more important things that they can only store a small bit before overwriting the data.
There’s this cool device in Japan and stuff where these hidden cameras are a problem in bathrooms and stuff, you look through it and it makes any camera lenses shine. This makes me wanna get one now if I ever go to an airbnb
This can happen in hotels, restaurant bathrooms, basically anywhere people have private access to a room before you enter it. Always good to do a “sweep” of sorts in any room that promises privacy. We live in new times.
Uh bro, airbnb terms of service are across the board. Yes the home owner can set rules like no parties no animals, but you cant set up a jackoff cam lmao. People like you are why the judicial system is so fucked, you think freedom and liberty means freedom and liberty to do whatever tf you want. Sorry fam, there are guidelines.
I miss the old days, when saying "they're secretly watching me through spycams in the TV / smoke detector / alarm clock!" just meant you had schizophrenia.
yes when people stay at my place I have those auto sprayers that automatically spray air freshner they do have a light on them and people always stick them in a drawer lmao you cracked me up with the flaccid cock comment.
I'm honestly only surprised that this doesn't happen more often. The thought of just staying in houses owned by random people has freaked me out from the beginning. I've never used AirBnB. It might not be a completely logical thought; I could probably argue both sides of it easily. But still, no thank you. That would be my last resort for sure.
No cap, I think Charlie is just talking to himself and doesn’t realize there’s a camera recording him and just happens to make eye contact with it and then Matt uploads the footage to UA-cam. Just a theory
I used to work in those services in a company that shall stay unamed and the amount of complaints I got from people who discovered cameras in their AirBnB is huge, there is an owner i confronted myself which he justified the existence of cameras is for securite, I told him "Well I dunno what kind of security you are trying to make by setting a camera in the bathroom and toilette"
Its all about how the light hits the lens with any hidden camera. In certain angles, with certain light conditions, its easy to see any hidden camera. Its impossible to hide that glare when the light and angle conditions are perfect.
I have no idea how this is such a shock to people. I never understood how Airbnb got so popular in the first place. You're in a strangers house with no real regulations or quality control beyond the people listing. The idea of staying in a strangers house while I'm on vacation is terrifying.
Depends some off shoots (beach house rental companies) are amazing and have actual quality control with maintenance services being around 7 days a week
You do realize that most airbnbs are not actually the hosts living home right? Most if not all are different properties people own specifically for airbnb. Have you never used the service?
tbh, I’m not one of those people who’s afraid to shit in public bathrooms, so I’d find it hilarious if some creep employee was watching me thinking he’d get a cheeky glance at me taking a piss just to hear me absolutely destroy the toilet. Would be even better if he had to go clean that bathroom right after I was done.
I know I'm late to this, but I've seen people mention using your phone to spot the lenses and there's another method too I'd suggest: There are apps like Fing that allow you to scan for devices on the wifi network that you're on, and it's really useful to check for any suspicious devices (like wifi connected spycams) at an airbnb. There are also apps that detect bluetooth devices nearby without being on wifi at all.
This is literally one of my biggest fears and every time me and my boyfriend goes to an Airbnb or hotel, the first thing I do is look for hidden cameras
@@fortune. That's completely different. I know the NSA or the government isn't going to masturbate to me and my girlfriend having sex. I know the NSA or government isn't going to post it on a amateur porn website. Just because I am aware my iPhone is listening and watching doesn't mean I wont sweep our Airbnb or hotel for cameras.
This sadly isn’t also just an AirBnB issue. Even some hotel rooms have the same possibility of having these… Not to mention women’s restrooms, changing rooms, and mirrors. In Japan & South Korea this is a high occurrence as well. Way more than in the west.
@@sigrdrifa0 Victoria, what you've just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this comment chain is now dumber for having read it
as someone who this kind of thing has happened too, it changes how you travel, how you sleep, who you trust, everything. I was unlucky enough to have this happen in my home, but if anything it just shows how much more regulation needs to be happening in these Airbnb situations. idk it's just horrible stuff.
I recently rewatched The Conversation and realized that the main character isn’t nearly as paranoid as I thought he was. Honestly a pretty reasonable guy
If you're an airbnb Host and want to surveillance your home, do so. But keep it to common areas and let the people know. But deadass keep it out of private areas. This has been a known issue with some airbnbs for years though.
I've been living in Asia for nine years now and this shit is common knowledge over here. When you bring a girl back to a love hotel in either Korea or Japan, it's customary to do a "sweep" with all the lights off and looking through the camera function on your phone. Supposedly your phone camera will pick up any infra red coming from the spy cameras. Apparently an even better solution is to turn off all the lights and then sweep the room with your phone's flashlight/torch. They say all spy cameras need a highly reflective lens and they'll glint clearly in the dark if you shine a light on them. It's also why the phones in Korea and Japan make a loud ass shutter sound every time you take a picture, even screenshots. It's because there was too much upskirting.
Many countries have a law stating that digital cameras need shutter noises. Although in my new Samsung phone I have found a trick to making them shut up. I will not say online what that trick is...
@@OffGridInvestor I've only ever owned Samsungs. It's literally not a "trick" or "hack". The option to turn off shutter sound is right there in the settings.
All of my Nikon mirrorless cameras have a completely silent mode, where even I even have trouble hearing. So not all Japanese/Thai cameras are required to have a shutter sound. It makes sense because most pro cameras need to be able to not interrupt subjects or situations like inside a church during the vows or photographing small birds.
Thank you Charlie for sending this information to all your followers. I just hope we all spread the word to those around us. This is horrible. Serious jail time to these piles of garbage.
A quick tip. Turn the room dark. If the cameras are equipped with Infrared lighting and sensors, some of them will be visible right away as faint red LEDs. For more discrete ones, take out your phone and turn on the camera and start sweeping the room for any lights being emitted from suspicious spaces. To test this theory, you can try pointing the camera at a TV/AV remote controller's transmitter (non Bluetooth ones). They work on infrared and a visible flash is seen on camera every time you press a button.
@Mayank I saw this tip of using phone camera but I'm not sure if a specific type of camera is needed because my phone didn't show anything while I was pressing the buttons on a TV remote (not Bluetooth)
@@pritamroy9320 Which phine did you test with? I have a pair of iPhones and it is visible in both of them. Sometimes it's very faint so I'd suggest trying it in dark set up.
@@mostwanted002 I have a very cheap phone. Realme C3. Okay I don't remember if it was pitch black or not when I tested but I'll test again in such conditions.
Court room probably budgets in archaic, low dollar tech to keep costs down. Airbnb can fetch upward of a thousand dollars a night,so he probably wants to have the highest quality camera for when he's slapping the turkey.
All I gotta say, is Charlie.. you get my respect! You haven’t let clout get to you or screw up your ego. You just do you and always seem genuine. Thanks man 🙏
Shot a film at an Airbnb. The dude had the same cameras. We set aside a room for actors (including a little girl) to change. After finding these, we called the cops
@@thatonechick6747 The UPM and producer handled telling the actors. The police only showed up the day after my last day. Don't know about the fallout other than that. I just heard that the police showed up from crew who had to load out more stuff
I stayed in an airbnb in Florida. there was a small hallway closet they were adamant about saying we shouldn't open. they said if you open it or we find evidence of you trying to open it there would be some kind of consequence. of course we checked to see if it was locked, and the running joke on the trip was that's where they're hiding the monitors for the cameras.
"there will be a consequence" bro 💀💀 if you're renting out your house for a few nights you can't just throw in terms like this. if there's dodgy stuff in there move it out of the place you're renting. you're not the guest's parent. what a weird airbnb experience
Little helpful fact: if you want to look for hidden cameras make the room as dark as possible and look through your phone camera, cameras will have a red dot that may not be completely visible to the eye but will stick out easily on your phone screen.
Only if they have an IR torch alot of the concealed cameras on the market don't have a torch. The best way to spot them is look for objects pointed/orientated in the direction of private areas (beds, showers out of view of windows etc)
@@clamwok Dumb smug comments like this are why I miss the working thumbs down button. Torch is a valid way to refer to a light. Torchlight is interchangeable with flashlight. An IR torch is just a light that shines infrared.
No Charlie. The ads even if it looks they’re listening, there’s a video proving it’s not like that. A UA-camr uploaded test trying to trigger specific ads, the conclusion was that in fact they don’t listen to target you as buyer.
Charlie, it's real. The hidden cameras are nuts now. I've seen 4K ones that a friend had installed in a business (won't give specifics for his privacy, but it's legal to protect the business. It's not creepy bathroom cameras, just in legal common spaces). Hidden camera and surveillance tech has come insanely far.
@@antzy_0 I remember Pepe the frog from before it was "attached to a movement" and still like the meme character as well. The mere fact of posting or using a Pepe meme does not mean that someone is a cist or W-premacist (have to talk in code or my post will be shadow blocked, you know what I mean).
Dude, I'm sorry to put this fear further into your mind, but you'd better believe that the alarm clock has a way better camera than courtrooms. I work at an AV tech company that has notoriously cheap ass gear. I get calls every day from not only school districts and courtrooms, but the US fucking government, who uses our equipment and need assistance.
The saddest thing is that they can legally do this, as long as they put it into the contract and you sign it they are allowed to do this, and it's not hard to hide it.
It's far worse in Asia. Over there the situation is so bad, there are people whose job is to check for hidden cameras throughout facilities. Normally happening, of course, in areas where women are nude. From onsens to ordinary changing rooms in stores, all the way down to girls lockers in elementary schools. And what's more sickening, it's a profitable profession. These scumbags make a living out of it. You can take a guess where they sell the goods. Scalpers just got knocked down a peg as the most evil people in the wide world.
For the lady who found out about the clock camera, I could be completely wrong in saying this and it might just be a generalisation, but I assume women tend to be more alert when it comes to shit like this because of how creepy some guys can be. I know women can be creepy too, but this sort of stuff probably happens more often to them. It’s honestly sad to think about.
You're correct. But it's not so much how creepy guys can be but how girls are more paranoid about their coochie being on camera versus guys having their cock on camera. We honestly don't care.
exactly what I was thinking, as a woman myself, I’m constantly on alert in places like air b&b’s. Ever since I was a teenager I’ve been told horror stories from stuff like one way glass, secret cameras and stuff like that. women just tend to be more aware of these thingsz
as a woman i was thinking the same general thing. looking out for creeps is part of the routine. personally i'd be afraid to immediately dismantle a camera in fear of being found out and killed or something
I always sweep for cameras (visually) but still feel like I’m being watched when I’m in a few airbnb I’ve stayed in. So i try to stay fluffed whenever i change or shower 😂
@@AnxiousSoul he isn’t writing a thesis for college and needed a direct quote even you know what it was meant to say and where it came from so you looking pretty stupid goofy also commenting about on a 9 month old comment like just read the comments
I think you guys should also know that nowadays with under-display cameras hidden inside TV and other displays this is becoming a huge problem, as those are pretty much impossible to spot. The tech is getting better (see the latest Samsung Fold) and it will eventually become seamless, so I would be weary of ANY display present in hotels, AirBnB, etc. A good way to spot cameras is to turn OFF all the lights, then turn on the camera on your phone and scan the room in the dark. If you see any bright little spots, those could be hidden cameras (the IR sensor).
I don't know why I've always been paranoid thinking someone is spying on me, and I don't really mind anymore I've overcame the fear and now I just say "by the way in a grower not a shower" Everytime I enter somewhere new
I’m literally renting an airbnb starting this sunday and even though the host is a ‘superhost’ with only good reviews, I was planning to do a sweep through the apartment to check for cameras. Seeing this just solidified my plans
My daughter’s host was a super host. Doesn’t mean anything. That woman was crazy. She harassed my daughter and was abusive to her. She wouldn’t stop texting her and wanted to know all her business. My daughter was there a few months because it was close to her college but we wound up moving her out. That so called super host was permanently suspended for her actions.
@@wendyfiolek5914 Yeah, it seems like AirBnB hosts take the "Bad Landlord" category and take it even further. Unfortunately, any situation where an individual is given even the tiniest amount of power over another person, there are those that will let that power go straight to their heads, and worse still there will be people who seek to be in that position specifically because they enjoy holding power over other people.
Stop what your doing immediately. I want you all to know this: My uncle got busted for sleeping in the chuck-E-cheese ball pit drunk. Yeah Idk why he likes to do his mafia business there.
The point he makes at the end that they could try to go for a defense like “it wasn’t me; it was a guest!” doesn’t really work if they have the footage from the owner’s own laptop.
Pro tip: turn off all the lights and use your flashlight, aim at the furniture that have a clear view of the room and you'll see the lens or a red light (infrared)
Better yet do this through the viewfinder of a camera, phone is probably fine, infrared wavelengths can show up as visible light. Any hidden camera with night vision would be emitting IR.
The fact that this guy pleaded “not guilty” is just astonishing to me. With so much evidence and for them to just say “Nah it must’ve been someone else”
Exactly. Admitting it and apologizing might take some time off his sentence compared to denying it, which adds time to his sentence because of perjury if he keeps lying in the courtroom.
A Starbucks employee did it one of the restrooms too. It’s worryingly common. And public cctv is invariably awful. You can buy 10x better from any store than the state is willing to pay out for. Mostly because those cameras get installed and then don’t ever get upgraded, so you’re watching cctv that still uses vhs a lot of the time.
Tbf, keeping it to tapes has the benefit of some cameras having programs to send videos where they are connected to wifi anyway. Or something. I'm sure a more tech savvy person can tell me exactly why or why not.
@@hossdelgado626 most decent cameras out there that are allowed for install by governments (avigilon, axis and mobitix) have direct encoding back to the storage device so you can't really snif the streams. That being said some cheaper cctv equipment out there does have loose security but most of that is not mission critical stuff.
@@exchi Japan has a huge problem with sexual assault and invasion of privacy in the most sexual way, the woman don't even report it majority of the time.
This hs always been on my mind, especially in public restrooms ever since I was in elementary school. We had a teacher that was dearly loved by everyone hide a camera in the teachers staff bathroom for years. He even transferred schools to become a principal and would frequently come back to my school to “visit” when in reality he was changing out the batteries. Luckily a teacher spotted it and he was arrested. My teacher at the time was a victim and it was really painful to see him come to school the day after the trial (he only got a few years of house arrest and some other stuff I think) and seem completely broken due to the exploitation and lack of justice. If you want to look into it his name was Brent hachborn. Moral of the story is always be aware of this stuff in any public place where you are vulernable because it is a completely real thing, and most people get away with it.
for anyone wondering, this guy is telling the infortune truth. Not that I didn't believe you, but I wanted to confirm no jail time. He used three different cameras in a rotation. They had been there for about a year before anybody noticed, containing "dozens of videos and 1,300 photographs of adult men in total. There were no images of women or children, nor any evidence that images of women or children had ever been deleted by the device." They also got some quotes from the judge who sentenced him "Justice Robert Gee said there were several factors working in Hachborn’s favour - including a lack of a criminal history, his voluntary confession on the day of his arrest, that he has taken counselling and that an expert considers him to have a low risk of reoffending." The judge also said "There are consequences to Mr. Hachborn’s actions that go well beyond … any sentence I impose on him,” fucking crazy
In hs a boy put a camera in the girl’s locker room but it was covered up & he was let off. I didn’t know about it until I was out of school. my mom and my best friend both knew about it but neglected to tell me at the time. I was like guys you know I changed in there right ?? you didn’t think to let me know ?? I was a little rattled after finding out but it could have been a year I didn’t have gym and I was never in a state of that much undress bc I was uncomfortable enough by the people around w out a camera in the mix but I’d like to know for sure and it sure sucks they didn’t get any consequences. It was a small private catholic school and his parents donated too much for the school to care.
Yeah I remember that guy, I had him as a teacher for about half a year. Cant believe he got let off with that slap on a wrist, i always assumed he at least faced a good amount of jail time. It was really rough seeing the effect it had on my teacher at the time.
I honestly always scouted for cameras every AirBNB I've been. I also usually just find out the admin credentials for the wifi router and check the connected clients to make sure there are no hidden IPTV cameras. I'm glad to see that was not complete paranoia (probably around 95% paranoia)
It’s really disgusting when you think that parents on vacation could potentially rent these. What if someone starts changing or bathing their CHILDREN?? 🤮🤮
Cameras at courtrooms are VERY rarely upgraded. Most of them still there are ancient by todays standards. Which is why their streaming/quality is always complete trash along with their overall systems in general. Remember that we are in a time with insane internet capabilities and we've got insanely good cameras so fitting into something that size wouldn't be much of an issue. And they certainly do run quite a decent chunk of money, not because of quality (although that's a factor) but because of how well they blend in. To the point that unless you take some of them apart you'd still never know even after looking at them for days. When your trying to purchase "spy gear" it's almost always more about concealment over everything else. Obviously for this weirdos situation he needed quality as well or he'd see a whole lot of pixels more than anything else.
Lol the lady that found the digital clock probably recognized that it was a hidden camera because she has one at home. A friend of mine got one that looks like a phone charger because he was sure that his roommates were snooping around his room, he got proof and brought it up with their landlord. Got the shady roommate evicted.
This is why I'm always acting like I'm being watched and always be super careful about getting naked, changing, and showering. Maybe that makes me "crazy" but I'm sure it's helped me not get seen naked on a hidden camera.
i can understand having like non-hidden camera's in a house for security/safety reasons and especially in airbnbs considering how many people destroy shit and are otherwise terrible clients. but those are usually visible and not in places like bedrooms and washrooms and shit, usually just in the living room area and places like hallways, doorways and garages. i'd assume they'd also need to be declared beforehand to the person renting on the website or call too.
yeah like if its to deter stealing or wrecking stuff it actually makes more sense to disclose that there are cameras because then a) its not like youre hiding it and b) probably deters any chances of tomfoolery pretty well
@@n1ppe why dont you let a stranger in your house while you are away, with no cameras or no proof to back up anything in court if they happen to steal or destroy something? lets see how good privacy is then
There is a “camera detector” you can buy to use to sweep a room to find cameras and an infrared red light you can shine around a room to look for lenses.
It was easy for her to find it because us women are always on the lookout for hidden cameras. You will find a few interesting short documentaries on UA-cam on the rampant use of hidden cameras in Korea and Japan. They hide cameras in stuff you would never imagine. For example a half used instant cup noodle etc.

Thanks for cutting out the footage, Charlie. I was recorded without my consent in a private moment as a minor and it left me with so much trauma, and a lot of people don't realize that if it's not in a bathroom or bedroom, it's totally legal to be recorded in many states even without your consent...terrifying
I once bought a used camera on amazon and immediately realized it was stolen when it arrived (for one thing, it still had a name tag, including phone number, of the previous owner, so it was pretty easy to confirm this suspicion, too). most of the pictures were of the couple whose camera it was, but the last picture was of the guy who stole it, it looked like the pawn shop guy took a picture of him to check if the camera works.
@@AmazingRebel23 I mean. Amazon is just a trash site anyways. In got scammed off an item, Amazon refused to recomp me. Then I paid express shipping for an item and it spent 4 days on the other side of the country. Very classy
This is gonna seem stupid but its crazy to me how this is charlies first time hearing about this, idk about other women but me and all my friends have had the ideas of cameras in hotels and stuff drilled into our heads, and its always routine for us to check it. It could be a difference in how men and women are raised or maybe just an area thing
I definitely think it's a gender thing, and a bit of a cultural thing. A lot of men I've met don't even realize how big of a deal some things can be for women.
It might be because I have a lot of girl friends but I’m constantly worried about mirrors because I’ve seen so many hidden double sided mirror and heard so many stories about women being spied on in bathrooms.
This was ALWAYS a fear of mine when I went to any hostel, motel, airbnb, hotel and rented, I would meticulously check for cameras. I guess my paranoia had some truth in it and there are devices you can use to detect hidden cameras, but I've never used nor tested one.
There are devices to detect broadcast frequencies, but a basic em field detector would be set off by any electronics. For modern surveillance gear you'd need to probe for bluetooth or wifi signals, and identify them, probably requiring knowledge of network security and hacking. That's no good if the device is recording to a local SD card though. An EM detector and a close eye can be useful, if there's an electromagnetic field where there shouldn't be, like near a mirror or something. Hiding non broadcasting microelectronics in other electronic devices is the hardest to find I'd imagine. But fortunately there are a limited number of believable things to hide a tiny camera in.
A tip for anyone paranoid. Turn off all of the lights in the room you’re staying in and shimmer your phone light around the room. Camera lenses are extremely reflective and you’ll be able to see abnormal circular reflections popping off of any cameras.
im glad there is a way to tell without buying something specific, I'd get so paranoid I would've gone around taking things apart

Actually those cameras really do exist in surprisingly amazing high def quality.
The reason you don't see it in supermarkets and courtrooms and other places is the storage.
Stores and government facilities typically need to house multiple days/weeks worth of video from all their cameras. The storage costs for that much video gets INSANE.
So most bigger establishments will run low res video feeds for long term storage and might have a couple high def cams for more important things that they can only store a small bit before overwriting the data.
1tb costs like a dime those days
There’s this cool device in Japan and stuff where these hidden cameras are a problem in bathrooms and stuff, you look through it and it makes any camera lenses shine. This makes me wanna get one now if I ever go to an airbnb
That’s cause them japan people is to smart for they own good lol
This can happen in hotels, restaurant bathrooms, basically anywhere people have private access to a room before you enter it. Always good to do a “sweep” of sorts in any room that promises privacy. We live in new times.

Its all about how the light hits the lens with any hidden camera. In certain angles, with certain light conditions, its easy to see any hidden camera. Its impossible to hide that glare when the light and angle conditions are perfect.

There are also apps that detect bluetooth devices nearby without being on wifi at all.

What you gonna do when your IP address gets terminated?
Better yet, your Device ID?
I've been living in Asia for nine years now and this shit is common knowledge over here. When you bring a girl back to a love hotel in either Korea or Japan, it's customary to do a "sweep" with all the lights off and looking through the camera function on your phone. Supposedly your phone camera will pick up any infra red coming from the spy cameras. Apparently an even better solution is to turn off all the lights and then sweep the room with your phone's flashlight/torch. They say all spy cameras need a highly reflective lens and they'll glint clearly in the dark if you shine a light on them.
It's also why the phones in Korea and Japan make a loud ass shutter sound every time you take a picture, even screenshots. It's because there was too much upskirting.
Many countries have a law stating that digital cameras need shutter noises. Although in my new Samsung phone I have found a trick to making them shut up. I will not say online what that trick is...
@@OffGridInvestor lol imagine needing that sound
@@OffGridInvestor I've only ever owned Samsungs. It's literally not a "trick" or "hack". The option to turn off shutter sound is right there in the settings.
All of my Nikon mirrorless cameras have a completely silent mode, where even I even have trouble hearing. So not all Japanese/Thai cameras are required to have a shutter sound. It makes sense because most pro cameras need to be able to not interrupt subjects or situations like inside a church during the vows or photographing small birds.
@@OffGridInvestor did u really try gatekeeping a fucking setting on your phone?
This is EXACTLY what I worry about when I go to an airbnb.

@Kavetion shut up
A quick tip. Turn the room dark. If the cameras are equipped with Infrared lighting and sensors, some of them will be visible right away as faint red LEDs. For more discrete ones, take out your phone and turn on the camera and start sweeping the room for any lights being emitted from suspicious spaces. To test this theory, you can try pointing the camera at a TV/AV remote controller's transmitter (non Bluetooth ones). They work on infrared and a visible flash is seen on camera every time you press a button.
Good tips
@Mayank I saw this tip of using phone camera but I'm not sure if a specific type of camera is needed because my phone didn't show anything while I was pressing the buttons on a TV remote (not Bluetooth)
cool theory BUT scanning my phone around a pitch dark room is too scary and i alas am a cowering fool

For the lady who found out about the clock camera, I could be completely wrong in saying this and it might just be a generalisation, but I assume women tend to be more alert when it comes to shit like this because of how creepy some guys can be. I know women can be creepy too, but this sort of stuff probably happens more often to them. It’s honestly sad to think about.
You're correct. But it's not so much how creepy guys can be but how girls are more paranoid about their coochie being on camera versus guys having their cock on camera. We honestly don't care.
exactly what I was thinking, as a woman myself, I’m constantly on alert in places like air b&b’s. Ever since I was a teenager I’ve been told horror stories from stuff like one way glass, secret cameras and stuff like that. women just tend to be more aware of these thingsz
Probably happens to men, too, more than they realize.
This woman is literally what I aspire to be. Not a victim of invasive sexual harassment, but a literal forensic scientist

I think you guys should also know that nowadays with under-display cameras hidden inside TV and other displays this is becoming a huge problem, as those are pretty much impossible to spot. The tech is getting better (see the latest Samsung Fold) and it will eventually become seamless, so I would be weary of ANY display present in hotels, AirBnB, etc.
A good way to spot cameras is to turn OFF all the lights, then turn on the camera on your phone and scan the room in the dark. If you see any bright little spots, those could be hidden cameras (the IR sensor).

This hs always been on my mind, especially in public restrooms ever since I was in elementary school. We had a teacher that was dearly loved by everyone hide a camera in the teachers staff bathroom for years. He even transferred schools to become a principal and would frequently come back to my school to “visit” when in reality he was changing out the batteries. Luckily a teacher spotted it and he was arrested. My teacher at the time was a victim and it was really painful to see him come to school the day after the trial (he only got a few years of house arrest and some other stuff I think) and seem completely broken due to the exploitation and lack of justice. If you want to look into it his name was Brent hachborn. Moral of the story is always be aware of this stuff in any public place where you are vulernable because it is a completely real thing, and most people get away with it.
for anyone wondering, this guy is telling the infortune truth. Not that I didn't believe you, but I wanted to confirm no jail time. He used three different cameras in a rotation. They had been there for about a year before anybody noticed, containing "dozens of videos and 1,300 photographs of adult men in total. There were no images of women or children, nor any evidence that images of women or children had ever been deleted by the device." They also got some quotes from the judge who sentenced him "Justice Robert Gee said there were several factors working in Hachborn’s favour - including a lack of a criminal history, his voluntary confession on the day of his arrest, that he has taken counselling and that an expert considers him to have a low risk of reoffending." The judge also said "There are consequences to Mr. Hachborn’s actions that go well beyond … any sentence I impose on him,” fucking crazy

Cameras at courtrooms are VERY rarely upgraded. Most of them still there are ancient by todays standards. Which is why their streaming/quality is always complete trash along with their overall systems in general. Remember that we are in a time with insane internet capabilities and we've got insanely good cameras so fitting into something that size wouldn't be much of an issue. And they certainly do run quite a decent chunk of money, not because of quality (although that's a factor) but because of how well they blend in. To the point that unless you take some of them apart you'd still never know even after looking at them for days. When your trying to purchase "spy gear" it's almost always more about concealment over everything else. Obviously for this weirdos situation he needed quality as well or he'd see a whole lot of pixels more than anything else.

CCTV cameras are low quality for storage purposes. Good luck storing years worth of recordings in HD.
@@War_Magus you underestimate how large a terabyte is
@@Overqualification lmao I'm glad someone commented this. 24hours of 720p? Run ya about a terabyte 😂
@@rekeamohcsreed7719 is that a statement or question?
i like how charlie thinks a good camera costs 50k and the government doesnt buy the cheapest dog shit they possibly can.

as if he hasn’t watched any state or federal level interrogation videos
i would never even consider an airbnb
I’ve seen so many videos in the past year about the same thing, every time I’m in a Airbnb I’m paranoid. Y’all stay safe out here
this video made me slowly look at my own smoke detector even though I'm not in an air bnb
At least I’m not the only one
Lol the lady that found the digital clock probably recognized that it was a hidden camera because she has one at home. A friend of mine got one that looks like a phone charger because he was sure that his roommates were snooping around his room, he got proof and brought it up with their landlord. Got the shady roommate evicted.

not u victim blaming
@@RED-my9hl the fuck? Learn to read honey. Guy just stated the benefits of a hidden canera
@@RED-my9hl?
@@RED-my9hl ??? What did he blame her of doing, exactly?
This is why I'm always acting like I'm being watched and always be super careful about getting naked, changing, and showering. Maybe that makes me "crazy" but I'm sure it's helped me not get seen naked on a hidden camera.
i can understand having like non-hidden camera's in a house for security/safety reasons and especially in airbnbs considering how many people destroy shit and are otherwise terrible clients.
but those are usually visible and not in places like bedrooms and washrooms and shit, usually just in the living room area and places like hallways, doorways and garages. i'd assume they'd also need to be declared beforehand to the person renting on the website or call too.
yeah theyre allowed cameras but they all have to be declared even if not connected
yeah like if its to deter stealing or wrecking stuff it actually makes more sense to disclose that there are cameras because then a) its not like youre hiding it and b) probably deters any chances of tomfoolery pretty well
I don't think that's ok at all. Privacy should be respected.
@@n1ppe why dont you let a stranger in your house while you are away, with no cameras or no proof to back up anything in court if they happen to steal or destroy something? lets see how good privacy is then
@@vanity1180 why would I do that?
There is a “camera detector” you can buy to use to sweep a room to find cameras and an infrared red light you can shine around a room to look for lenses.
Your phone can do the same thing as well
@@fireandiron4181 go on
@@yegor2 Use your flash and camera on your phone. It’ll be obvious if you hit a lens
Or you can use YOUR PHONE or a torch. I have a proper bug sweeper for the old basic types and even anything with a radio transmission/streaming.
The worst nightmare of people experiencing psychosis
After all the ridiculousness with scam charges..fees..cancellations..Then this on top of all that?!
Couldn't pay me to stay in an AirBnB.
That woman deserves an award for feeling smth is wrong and checking the cam out, who else would've thought ?
It was easy for her to find it because us women are always on the lookout for hidden cameras. You will find a few interesting short documentaries on UA-cam on the rampant use of hidden cameras in Korea and Japan. They hide cameras in stuff you would never imagine. For example a half used instant cup noodle etc.
She deserves an award for having TOOLS ON HAND TO OPEN that alarm clock. Average young white women can't use a damn screwdriver. This girl probably ran around and changed any broken light bulbs while she was there.
@@OffGridInvestor you are insulting all white women in the process of praising this woman.......
@@OffGridInvestor 1) i dont understand what race has anything to do with this?
2) even if race did matter she wasnt white
3) there was nothign that suggested that she needed a tool
4) why is it impressive that she might have had a screwdriver laying around? have you never changed a battery in your life?
this whole comment is so weird
@@OffGridInvestor why are you bringing race into this
The creepy Airbnb guy looks like John Travolta's long lost twin evil brother that he doesn't want to talk about.
Which is impressive because John Travolta already looks like a creepy, evil guy
It's already scummy enough to own a Airbnb, honestly didn't know the bar could be raised any lower.
Literally got an Airbnb ad at the start of the video
Thanks for cutting out the footage, Charlie. I was recorded without my consent in a private moment as a minor and it left me with so much trauma, and a lot of people don't realize that if it's not in a bathroom or bedroom, it's totally legal to be recorded in many states even without your consent...terrifying
Sorry to hear that happened to you. That's genuinely disgusting and rough af for anyone to go through, let alone a minor.
I had the same thought... The fact they made this footage available to us is terrible, way to make it even worse assholes.
As opposed to being openly recorded and humiliated 🤣 get a tardis and watch my life, then you’ll know what humiliation really is
@@wolfetteplays8894 my guy! be quiet
Yeah, because we are recorded so much everyday, it's actually legal for you to be filmed in a public place which is horrible to think about.
I once bought a used camera on amazon and immediately realized it was stolen when it arrived (for one thing, it still had a name tag, including phone number, of the previous owner, so it was pretty easy to confirm this suspicion, too). most of the pictures were of the couple whose camera it was, but the last picture was of the guy who stole it, it looked like the pawn shop guy took a picture of him to check if the camera works.
That's just hillarious
did u send it back to the owner
I hope you reported it to the police
Thats why i dont buy online, especially from that website
@@AmazingRebel23 I mean. Amazon is just a trash site anyways. In
got scammed off an item, Amazon refused to recomp me. Then I paid express shipping for an item and it spent 4 days on the other side of the country. Very classy
wow that's crazy
i literally got an ad for air bnb before this video
This is gonna seem stupid but its crazy to me how this is charlies first time hearing about this, idk about other women but me and all my friends have had the ideas of cameras in hotels and stuff drilled into our heads, and its always routine for us to check it. It could be a difference in how men and women are raised or maybe just an area thing
I definitely think it's a gender thing, and a bit of a cultural thing. A lot of men I've met don't even realize how big of a deal some things can be for women.
It might be because I have a lot of girl friends but I’m constantly worried about mirrors because I’ve seen so many hidden double sided mirror and heard so many stories about women being spied on in bathrooms.
I think most men don’t care as much about whether someone is watching them change or take a shower. I certainly don’t
As a girl, I have known to look for cameras in hotels and public areas you can change in since I was in middle school
it's because he doesn't travel.
you can't be worried about something you don't do.
Imagine taking a shit at a air bnb and some guy comes over on a radio hidden somewhere and asks you how it’s going
Pretty good thanks for asking, u?
@ForgiveZharion bro what lmao
The person would need to either get out or just turn himself in, like you shouldn't just stay after that, you gotta be depraved.
"don't flush. save some for me 😉"
@ForgiveZharion 🤡
I wonder how many people watching this have seen one of those digital clocks somewhere and are just putting two and two together.
I got an air bnb ad in the middle of watching this 💀💀
This was ALWAYS a fear of mine when I went to any hostel, motel, airbnb, hotel and rented, I would meticulously check for cameras.
I guess my paranoia had some truth in it and there are devices you can use to detect hidden cameras, but I've never used nor tested one.
Waiting for "Ratio + yb better + nobody asked + this you 🤓🤓👶🏽👨🏼💻👨🏼💻" to show up
Those devices normally check for wifi connections (2.4 GHz), they do work if you do a meticulous inspection
@@norXmal its here
There are devices to detect broadcast frequencies, but a basic em field detector would be set off by any electronics. For modern surveillance gear you'd need to probe for bluetooth or wifi signals, and identify them, probably requiring knowledge of network security and hacking. That's no good if the device is recording to a local SD card though. An EM detector and a close eye can be useful, if there's an electromagnetic field where there shouldn't be, like near a mirror or something. Hiding non broadcasting microelectronics in other electronic devices is the hardest to find I'd imagine. But fortunately there are a limited number of believable things to hide a tiny camera in.
Yeah I would just lay in bed staring at the smoke alarm hoping it wasn’t a camera when ever I had an Airbnb
