I grew up in a suburb in the 90s, where many people didn’t even lock their doors when they went out of town. It speaks to the times. And back then, home security systems were expensive and tricky to operate. Even if you had one, your cat could easily set off the alarm.
We’ve come a long way since then, and now pretty much anyone can set up a home security camera that connects right to their smartphone. And, according to Forbes, the technology keeps improving. You can see what’s going on at your house when you’re at work or halfway across the world. And, best of all, Fido won’t trip these motion detectors.
