Kind of incredible that this still continues. They at least give some kind of cover for the use case of a "baby camera" but honestly even that feels so flimsy. This is disturbing.

> "This is a 1080P mini Shower shelf spy camera that looks like an ordinary can of Shower shelf. The camera is so well hidden that no one will know that the Shower shelf actually contains a mini bathroom spy camera. Because it is so well hidden, you can put it anywhere, even in the bathroom, and no one will be suspicious. "

I don't know who buys their "Shower shelves" in cans but this whole blurb makes no sense. The picture shows a shower head, not a shelf or a can.

The malicious intent is clear at the end of the quoted paragraph though. Not to mention that I wouldn't know where else to use a shower head other than "even in the bathroom".

the "baby camera" part is just the vendor keyword-stuffing for search results so that their product will show to more people.
