Can you guess which of these objects contains a hidden camera?

In fact, all of them are hidden cameras disguised as everyday objects. They could easily end up in your business, monitoring every move.

Hidden cameras are still widely available on Amazon despite the company being sued over these devices.

Everyday household items have been turned into hidden cameras accessible to anyone.

Hidden camera easily accessible

A quick search on Amazon reveals recording devices hidden in various innocent household items, along with a multitude of mini-cameras that can be concealed anywhere.

The products are marketed as "security cameras" intended to protect your home from intruders or to "monitor" your loved ones, such as children or elderly family members.

However, a "clandestine nanny cam recorder" shows a couple lying together on a bed, while another, a spy pen camera, depicts people conversing during a meeting.

Some of the cameras are also equipped with night vision and a 15-hour battery life. One, hidden inside a coat hook, is labeled as a "Mini spy camera, you need it everywhere."

Would you be able to spot a hidden camera?

Among the products concealing cameras are clocks, speakers, smoke detectors, hats, glasses, and alarm clocks.

Others include watches, car keys, and USB chargers.

Most can be delivered within a few days.

Secret recording devices are still available from the online retail giant despite a U.S. judge's ruling that Amazon must face a lawsuit filed by a woman claiming she was filmed in the bathroom with a hidden camera concealed in a coat hook.

She claims that while she was in a house in West Virginia, and still legally a minor, she was recorded in the bathroom by the camera. She is seeking punitive damages against Amazon Inc, Amazon.com Services LLC, and other unnamed defendants, arguing that the use of the camera was "foreseeable to Amazon."

The man accused of being responsible is facing trial.

Last year, Amazon agreed to pay millions to settle separate privacy violation cases involving its Alexa and Ring devices, as it was alleged that Amazon employees had unrestricted access to customers' sensitive video data through Ring.

In one case, it was alleged that a former employee had watched 81 different women through the company’s cameras.
