Another option is to choose not to be afraid. If one really care, get good at sweeping a place for cameras & remove the fear. If one is too lazy to sweep for cameras (like me!), decide to accept there's a low, non-zero chance that I'll get taped and move on.
"You've got a tape of me? Congratulations! Send me a copy.
It's a good thing there wasn't a camera covering all of the apartment. I had a little digestion shenanigans going on, I'm glad there's no evidence I am the one who left that floor. I tried to clean it up, but I didn't have any industrial chemicals."
- RankingMember 8y agoThis perspective is fine if you're by yourself, but what if you've got kids with you?
- oliveshell 8y agoNot the parent commenter, but if I had kids with me I’d stay in a hotel. It can be stressful enough traveling with children without having to worry about all the variables of an Airbnb stay.
- icebraining 8y agoCameras have been found in hotels too.
- ekovarski 8y agoBeing secretly taped, esp in intimate moments, is a valid fear that many women have. It has long term repercussions on their life esp when the videos get shared. I don't actively sweep rooms but I'd be lying if I didn't say I inspected something that looked out of place when staying with the family at hotels and rentals. When I am by myself, I am less paranoid about these issues.
- munk-a 8y agoThis is absolutely a real issue, it's a problem with society and I'd love to see it change as it'd also help de-claw the terrible action that is revenge porn but until that happens... Yea, this.
- JudgeWapner 8y agoa fear isn't made more urgent because a woman has it.
- yojex 8y agoAnd, likewise, made no less urgent because a man doesn't have it.
- stordoff 8y agoNo one said it was. It's a fear that men don't as often have (to the same degree) - that doesn't make it any more, _or any less_, urgent.
- Mirioron 8y agoThe implication was there though. I suspect that most men simply aren't vigilant about these issues, and so they don't fear it. I'm sure it would bother them too.
- loco5niner 8y agoNo. The implication was not there.

- loco5niner 8y agoYou also have it backwards. Men don't fear it as much as women, so they aren't as vigilant.
