Damn! Now, it's happening. Now, all thurinigan (flat)renters become the smokedetectors forced by law, too!
Ok, primary, it's not a bad think. BUT secondary, the problem is the evil technological potential of these "monitoring devices", the general problem on german data-protection and the prospective possibilties!
In Thuringia, the smokedetectors have to be installed in every (rental)flat until 31. Decembre 2018. Our housebuilding-coorporative will install the devices on 01.06.2016.
I'm really not thinking about "New World Order/1984" or "conspiracy theories", but the technological potential of the newer models with radiosignal- and ultrasonic-facilities is just alarming for thinking people!
Actual, these newer devices are just "borderline" and their ultrasonic-security-system is of course just scanning 60cm around if surrounding air is free, but WHAT will come NEXT by law??? Microphones, cameras, full scan???
