Tech legal expert Eric Goldman wrote that a victory for the plaintiff could be considered “a dangerous ruling for the spy cam industry and for Amazon,” because “the court’s analysis could indicate that all surreptitious hook cameras are categorically illegal to sell.” That could prevent completely legal uses of cameras designed to look like clothes hooks, Goldman wrote, such as hypothetical in-home surveillance uses.

      You walk around the kitchen with muddy boots? I have house slippers like a civilized person. I also don’t live in a bubble and I don’t sweat the small stuff.

        No, I usually go barefoot. And I have three kids and two cats. I don’t keep my home to model standards, no. I live there.

        I don’t know about the rest of it but house slippers?!? You can’t get away with just slipping that in there. Why do you have shoes for your house?!?!? How dirty do you keep it in there??? 🤣

            Two things little bit more seriously. One is that I have people take off their shoes in my house so that I can walk around barefoot and not get my feet all filthy.

            While I prefer not to have things on my feet I do admit those look pretty comfortable.
