A recent report highlights the growing problem of hidden cameras in apartments and rental properties, with surveillance devices being discovered in places tenants would never expect. Tiny cameras can be concealed in everyday objects like smoke detectors, vents, light fixtures, and even electrical outlets, making them extremely difficult to detect.
