I think they should be allowed to point it at places inside their store, with prominent disclosure to people entering.

I don't think they should be allowed to point it at the public sidewalk.

So what if they mount inside pointing outside?

Was "I don't think they should be allowed to" ambiguous?

maybe I wasn't specific enough. If I place a camera in my place so that it can see who is coming/going that also just happens to capture what's outside the window then that's just how it's going to be. If you don't like it, you can pound sand. You are not going to tell me how I can/can't place cameras inside my place.

Many jurisdictions already have laws about where you can point cameras "in your own place", including when they point out of your place. For instance, you are already not allowed to point a camera out your window at someone else's home, or into their backyard. You also can't legally record audio in most places. We should have more such restrictions on surveillance as the pervasive use of surveillance has become more of a threat.

Baitposting followed by rudeness and aggression makes for a poor discussion.

It wasn't bait posting at all. It was a question for critical thinking. The rude was started with the response to that question. If you think you can tell me what I can do in my own place, you'll get a rude response as well. Where do you get off telling me what I can/cannot do in my private place?
