1) It should be reasonable to expect some privacy when you give your kids into the care of other people. There is a whole lot difference: someone can walk by a day care and see kids playing outside and anyone on the internet can access these systems. I don’t know how these nurseries work that use these systems, but I assume that not that many people have access to the kids, only staff and maybe other parents/guardians.

2) The company producing these camera systems claims them to be more secure than online banking. This is flat out wrong, one might even argue fraud.
