This case is more common in reality and has certain guiding significance.
The basic case is: Wang is adjacent to Zhang. Wang claimed that in order to protect his own safety and prevent people from dumping garbage, he installed a camera in the balcony area adjacent to Zhang. Zhang thought that the camera violated his privacy, and asked Zhang to dismantle it. So, is Wang's behavior of installing a camera legal?
In the trial process of Xuhui District People's court, the main trial opinions are as follows:
First, consider the scope of monitoring. If the monitoring scope is public and public area, and in the public area, Zhang's daily life activities in the public area are more frequent, then the basis of infringing his privacy right can be established.
Second, the purpose of Wang's camera installation. Wang's installation of cameras as a means of self-defense, belongs to personal interests, and is not conducive to the neighborhood groups.
Third, whether Wang's behavior is beyond the reasonable limit. From the perspective of legal interests, if Wang's self-interest can't be higher than the privacy rights and interests of the person who is being monitored by camera, we can confirm that Wang's behavior is beyond the reasonable limit.
