Bad actors have been doing that for millennia using their eyes.

This makes it more remote and subtle, but it’s not a new threat.

Not just remote, automatic as well. IMO an entirely new class of threat over "my neighbor knows when I'm home."

If the government wants to know if you’re home, they’ll know. That’s been the case for as long as there have been governments and fixed residences.

What is new, I admit, is they could retroactively know if you’re home on a date before they became interested in you, if they’re surveilling and recording everyone.
