Well that's explicitly out of scope of the GDPR, so it shouldn't cause those issues.

Article 2(2):

>This Regulation does not apply to the processing of personal data [...] by a natural person in the course of a purely personal or household activity

and even if that wasn't the case, unless you're performing automated processing or using a filing system, it's out of scope due to Article 2(1) as well.

not literally your neighbor, just general privacy fears, and cultural stigmas that every person deserves the right to unending privacy
