WIBTA if I make my neighbour take down their camera?

I (22F) have a neighbor that has at least one security camera that faces my house, driveway, and garage.

I have talked with them about it in person and over Messenger.

They insist that my house is not in view.

I have proof that this is a lie.

They do not care and refuse to admit it. They say because it is a motion-activated camera, it is totally legal to have it looking in that direction.

This woman isn’t comfortable with the neighbor’s camera pointing at their house.

They say I am threatening them with getting someone involved.

I told them I want them to either take the cameras down or angle them in another direction. My family and I are uncomfortable with it.

I am also not sure if the cameras are even legal where I live. At least Google says it is not.

It also shows the public road. It shows the garage of my other neighbor.

She noticed another camera pointing at another neighbor’s house.

I know that they have at least one more camera that oversees my other neighbor’s house.

I am pretty certain they do not know about it.

There is also no sign warning people that they are being recorded. I do not know if that is an obligation.

She’s thinking about reporting this to City Hall.

I am thinking about calling city hall to ask if I can do anything about this.

I do not want to get them into trouble. I do not know what to do anymore.

They also blocked me on every platform after we decided not to be friends anymore.

I cannot even message them about this.

I do not want to talk to them in person because I am very sure it would only make the situation worse.

Finally, short and simple.

Good fences make good neighbors, but apparently, cameras make things awkward.
