If you had read OPs post correctly you would understand they are a renter, they are not using it for security monitoring, but to install a spy camera in a leased space for the express purposes to spy on the landlord without notice nor permission.
The landlord is within their rights to evict OP for this action, and depending on the state, not only retain the bond for damages, but to also bring a small claim court action for reparations due to repairs and hiring of a specialist to sweep the residence for other hidden devices.
How do I know? I worked in rentals and sales in my father’s agency every summer and for a few years after finishing university.
OP’s first call should be to the tenants/rental association of their state as they will be the best and easiest way to resolve this issue. Never take action without consulting them first.
As for your snarky comments, keep being poor. I hire and fire douches like you all the time.
