Cybersecurity researcher Marcus Hutchins shows how to spot tiny hidden cameras concealed inside of fire alarms, clocks, and USB chargers that may be inconspicuously placed throughout your next Airbnb rental. One of the easiest methods is to just shine a bright light on any questionable equipment or electronics placed in optimal locations that could be possibly be used for spying purposes.
A second method would be simply shaking the device with a bright light, and if you hit a camera lens, you’ll see a blueish reflection. This same trick would also work for devices that appear to be mirrored, like alarm clocks. You could also switch off the lights and use the front-facing camera on a smartphone to identify infrared LEDs for detecting night-vision cameras.
