Spy Surveillance

Spy & Surveillance Protection   by Sam Chetcuti

How many times have you said, I wish I had a picture of that and I could prove it to you? Alas we cannot be everywhere at once. That being the case we sometimes may have to rely on electronic methods to do our work for us. Having what is commonly referred to as a Nanny Cam is completely within your rights. If you suspect something is amiss when you are not at home, then by all means buy one of these devices and utilize it in your absence. By the same token we have surveillance models which look like common items you would find at any business. That way you can protect your place of business in the same manner.
We at SvetSam Enterprises offer numerous spy & surveillance devices on our website. The following are a few of our more popular models.
First I have to start with what most of us would call our domain. By that I mean our home. We carry DVR recorders which are disguised as items that would be commonplace in most homes. Most of these items are fully functional as the item they are pretending to be. We carry a Desk Lamp, Boom Box and Alarm Clock which are all fully functional. Only you will know that these items have a dual purpose.
The DVR feature in these items is motion activated. This means you will not have to go through hours of blank tape. These devices will activate only if someone moves by them. You can also schedule a block of time to record and it will activate in that manner. All of these units’ time and date stamp all of their recording. All of these units come with a remote control which will give you added flexibility.
Finally and most important each of these units comes with an 8GB SD card on which you can record from 8 to 144 hours. The time difference determines the quality of the recording. The longer you tape on the card, the poorer the resolution of you recording.
I will now mention two of our disguised DVR units which are a must for your place of business. How many times have we heard of a small business being robbed and unfortunately there were no witness’ to the crime. With our cleverly disguised Wall Clock DVR and Exit Sign DVR, you don’t need anyone to testify to a crime. You will have it on tape. It certainly is not a crime to protect yourself in a covert fashion when your livelihood is being endangered. Both the Wall Clock DVR and Exit Sign DVR have the exact same features as the ones mentioned in the preceding paragraphs. The beauty of these two units is that they don’t look out of place in a business. And a further selling point is that they both are fully functional as the items they are pretending to be.
Uncertainty is a funny thing. It will make people act more cautiously than they would normally. We carry Dummy Dome Cameras that will have your employees think carefully about their actions. A potential robber will also be alarmed upon seeing these dummy cameras and may very will pass your place of business and look for an easier target. We have one dummy dome camera which looks like a normal mounted unit and another with a flashing LED. Only you will know that beneath these ominous looking domes is nothing. You don’t need to let anyone else in on that fact.
Aside from getting caught, I would wager that a thief does not want to be known. The surveillance devices I have mentioned will most definitely record the misdeeds of someone you trust in your house or a vandal in your place of business. For a small investment you can protect your loved ones, property and self. Catching someone on tape in the act of a crime is proof that is irrefutable.
Security products are very much like insurance. You hope that you will never need to use it, but you sure are glad if the unforeseen happens that you have insurance.
Visit the Spy & Surveillance page at our website, http://www.allforyoursecurity.com/spy-&-surveillance and browse through the products we have for sale. You will almost certainly find a surveillance device which will fit inconspicuously in either your home or workplace. Not only that, it will also give you peace of mind knowing that these devices are capturing video of events you don’t want to miss.

About the Author

My wife and I are starting an online business in hopes of putting a small dent into the problems of crime. It is very sad for us to see how many criminal problems are in our society today. We would hope to make the regular citizen fully aware of the various self defense and security products available to them. It is our hope that in this way people will be more than hapless victims to the criminal element among us.

One Nation Under Surveillance $45 What limits, if any, should be placed on a government's efforts to spy on its citizens in the name of national security? Spying on foreigners has long been regarded as an unseemly but necessary enterprise. Spying on one's own citizens in a democracy, by contrast, has historically been subject to various forms of legal and political restraint. For most of the twentieth century these regimes were kept distinct. That position is no longer tenable. Modern threats do not respect national borders. Changes in technology make it impractical to distinguish between 'foreign' and 'local' communications. And our culture is progressively reducing the sphere of activity that citizens can reasonably expect to be kept from government eyes. The main casualty of this transformed environment will be privacy. Recent battles over privacy have been dominated by fights over warrantless electronic surveillance and CCTV; the coming years will see debates over DNA databases, data mining, and biometric identification. There will be protests and lawsuits, editorials and elections resisting these attacks on privacy. Those battles are worthy. But the war will be lost. Modern threats increasingly require that governments collect such information, governments are increasingly able to collect it, and citizens increasingly accept that they will collect it. This book proposes a move away from questions of whether governments should collect information and onto more problematic and relevant questions concerning its use. By reframing the relationship between privacy and security in the language of a social contract, mediated by a citizenry who are active participants rather than passive targets, the book offers a framework to defend freedom without sacrificing liberty.
