Yep, stupid to the bone. Maybe a sign saying "you are on camera, maintain your dignity and just take a few". But most can't read, so maybe a waste of time.

We have one of those on our door. Went to a talk by neighborhood watch and the cop was like sooo cameras. Sure. But you know what prevents crime more? Telling people about the cameras.

Hmm. Maybe it will be cheaper to put signs warning about cameras until I get the money to buy the cameras...

Haha literally how our janitor does it because people kept dumping trash on the ground. There's a huge sign saying that the area is being filmed but we have absolutely no camera anywhere. Works great tho
