A vacation in the Caribbean was fun but they watched me there too.

There's a crew hotel Big-D uses in Florida that helpfully comes equipped with it's own iPad with both forward facing and back facing cameras. Helpfully already hooked up to the internet.
I'm 100% certain that the hotel management that can't successfully program door entry keys or keep maids from knocking on a door clearly marked "Do not disturb" is right on top of having top-shelf hacking software installed on those things.
You literally have a hi-def camera connected to the internet pointed right at you in your room. Everyone over 40 finds this creepy has hell, everyone under is like "whatever man".

He couldn't understand why smoking a cigarette in a hotel was awful; meanwhile the guy in the room next door was probably, uh, repeatedly "blowing his nose" into the shape of a pentagram on the bed cover, which was AOK with hotel management.
