I’m all for people having security cameras on their property if that’s what they want to do.

It’s their business and, if it makes them feel more secure, more power to them.

But if they’re using that technology to spy on their neighbors, well, I think you know how most people feel about that.

No bueno!

In today’s story, a man opened up about how his neighbors are driving him nuts…

And it ain’t pretty!

Read on and see what you think.

Nosey Neighbor with Security Camera Pointed at My Door.

“My new neighbor’s new Xfinity security camera points directly at my apartment door, and their behavior makes coming and going super awkward.

Well, this makes sense…

I generally wouldn’t mind a camera, except it’s pointed at my door.

I’ve seen those viral videos of people sharing doorbell videos of their neighbors coming and going. Commenting on their outfits, who they have coming over, etc. it’s weird what people do.

Unfortunately it’s legal in my state.

What are these people up to…?

I know they track my routine because one of them always takes a smoke break the exact moment I leave. I have tested it. When they try to chat, I just keep walking because I am introverted and want to be left alone.

Sometimes I use my patio door for short trips just to avoid their camera. But I can’t do this every time because it can’t lock from the outside. Even then, they strain to look through their window or peek through the blinds whenever I park my car.

When I catch them and look back, they snap the blinds shut. They are senior citizens acting like kids, and it is exhausting.

He’s tired of dealing with this…

To top it off, other random neighbors have casually told me things like, “I watch you walk past every day” or commented on my package deliveries.

I just work and mind my own business, but it feels like living under a microscope.

Have any of you dealt with neighbors watching you this intensely, and how do you handle it without losing your mind? I can handle ignoring them.

But I don’t like being on their camera because I know they’re watching me specifically.”

How invasive!

I don’t think anyone would be okay with this kind of business happening right outside their front door.

No way!

Maybe he should try to make that security camera mysteriously disappear in the middle of the night…
