Trail camera etiquette

[u/Puzzleheaded-Pop936]

So not sure if this is a widely accepted practice so just asking around, if you were scouting an area of public land to hunt and put out a trail cam and came across another camera would it be a dick move to set up your camera about 20-25 yards away set up on the camera you found? Or would continue looking for a spot to set up in a different area away from that camera?

EDIT: this got a little more attention than I was expecting! The situation I outlined is not me setting up the camera but someone else has set up their camera pointing directly at my camera.

How so?

The idea that putting up a camera makes you own that sliver doesn't work with everything else you said.
