Sure, sell miniature cameras. Fine. But don’t literally promote voyeurism in your ads for said cameras. Needless to say, I reached out to them about this and..... no response. It’s been a week. Looks like they don’t care, so I’m not using them ever again. Seriously, just... wow.

Seriously, who the fuck signed off on that ad showing up anywhere that isn’t Pornhub?

Even there, fuck all that noise--not behavior that should be normalized.

I think those ad posts are procedurally generated. Still, how do they not vet the pictures on things posted to their site?

I just assumed Wish was a scam anyway. I guess I now have no reason to discover if that is true or not.

I’m both disgusted and impressed. I mean...there has got to be like a million better ways to advertise the camera, but they go straight for the most horrifying option.

Wish isn’t a scam. They just peddle cheap products made and sold by the lowest bidder in China . Their higher priced stuff is better quality, however for the most part everything is only slightly better quality than something you’d buy from a dollar store.

Not voyeurism: loss prevention. It’s so you can be sure your customers aren’t stealing.

Right?

what the hell?

an honest add... im shocked

normally they’d at least pretend their buyers would need these for *home security*

coz nothing defends your home like security measures you cant see

(okay.. some invisible shit like alarms work a charm... but cams work best when they are seen.... as a detterent anyway)

Ad line: You are $14 dollars away to being a registered sex offender! By now pay for the rest of your life.

For home yeah, these small cameras are just for spying. Commercially though, people will move just outside the line of cameras to do illegal shit. So a combination of visible and hidden cameras is ideal.

We have a camera at work called the ‘poo camera’ because it covers a corner of our building that homeless people used to sneak over to and take a shit because there wasn’t coverage (it is highly visible now ).

I’m definitely not condoning peeping or this ad - and all the things I’ve bought off wish have been really cheap and defective knockoffs.

One time I was on the M79 and I saw a guy recording a video down a woman’s blouse. I grabbed his phone, smashed it, and said “fuck with me, go ahead.”

He did not fuck with me. I have zero chill about that shit . That dude almost got dead.

Fun story, a guy I know started his own business and put cameras in the women’s bathroom. He’s now a registered sex offender after spending a year in real-deal prison. How is this different?

And yes, he still owns that business. Most of his cu sto mers are out of state and must not have heard about it.
