how to tell if a mirror has a camera Page 9

Worried the mirror’s doing more spying than reflecting? Start by looking for a tiny pinhole or lens behind the glass, odd gaps, or suspicious wiring—mirrors don’t normally need power. In a dark room, shine a torch at the mirror: if you can see through to components, it could be a two-way setup, though this test isn’t foolproof. Use your phone camera to scan for tell‑tale infrared LEDs; test your phone with a TV remote first to make sure your phone can “see” IR. If something feels off, cover the mirror, change rooms, and report it to management or the police—better paranoid than on candid camera.
