Hidden Cameras in Cabins?!?!

[Relax@Sea]

Its a Fault indicator L.E.D if there is a problem reading the key card it turns red if all is ok it turns green. I think it my be missing its little cover.

It's not a camera. First of all, cameras require hard wiring. Secondly, the job of looking in over a 1000 rooms would require considerable manpower. Third, a camera has a lens not an iris. Fourth, if this was a camera everyone would be arrested after leaving Jamaica, if you get my drift. This guy is just whacked

[onthehighseas606]

I am not even going to look at the video. Don't need to. There are no camera in the cabins. :p

The stewards know when you are gone because they see you in the hallways, and they know what time your dinner time is.

 

Hmm, but they don't know if you went to dinner or not, or if you decided to go to bed. I'm still bringing the duct tape. :D

[cuzzx]

these are cameras but the video is only looked at if something happens in your room. fight, yelling, hard parting, man overboard. etc.

I first looked & thought it said hard panting.:D

[valandemmy]

If you look right under the video it states that it is a motion detector so the steward knows if your in the room. I think its not creepy at all. Walking in while your having sex or getting dressed would be creepy. Problem solved!

 

 

They could just KNOCK, like they do in hotel rooms....:D

[idlenote]

Last go round on the Conquest the power went off in the cabin and a white emergency light went on on the switch assembly outside the bathroom. Not enough to light the cabin but enough to show the way to the door.

[xerenthar]

yes, it's a hidden camera in plain sight

If a motion detector, it doesn't work very well. :o:eek:;)

 

Hence, the deadbolt.

yeah, no offense to anyone but the guy is definitely a loner. Can't wait to get home to his cat?

 

Something about single guys and cats.......

HEY..HEY..HEY..Im a single guy with a cat..LOL. A couple of cruises ago I invited a crew member to my cabin, and i was told they couldnt because of cameras..HMMMM....Mabie that is for to watch crew members that they dont mess around with passengers in cabins. Next cruise, Just put some tape over the hole..If it gets removed, then you know what its for.

[mavis2222]

Hidden Camera? UH...no, HOWEVER, I was surprised to learn during our behind the fun tour back on the conquest last may, that the captain was telling us there are microphones in every room. It's a part of the fire alarm system apparently. If an alarm is sounding in a room, which apparently happens quite frequently when people shower with the bathroom door open, an alarm goes off on the bridge and they listen in and to determine if an actual fire or if they hear the shower going and they go about their business, just an interesting little fact.

Dammm.. I shower with the door open..

If I were to discover a real hidden camera in my cabin, my response would be to secure the evidence, contact a lawyer, then confront CCL for a possible resolution. Free cruises for life could be one possible solution.

 

Nope to the first one, for the reason posted in the second one.

 

A multi billion dollar business is not going to open itself up to the bad pr that would come about from someone being videoed in their cabin. The corporate lawyers would of shot that idea down the second it was raised.

 

I'm on the Spirit in two weeks, i'll take one apart and see what I can find.

First : No they don't.

Second : 2200 cameras can be run by one person and a bank of DVR's

 

Third : google "iris diaphragm"

Now THAT skeeves me out! I know there is a p.a. system that runs thru each cabin, but a mic?:eek: I guess if things get boring on the bridge, they can "tune in" for some entertainment!:cool::p

[salty dingo]

Yes, all the cabins have hidden cameras. Where do you think all that Internet porn comes from, anyway?

 

The crew watches them and gives each cabin a rating on a scale of 1 to 10. 1 means they immediately erase the video and get counseling. 10 means they post it to the Internet and get paid so much they don't care if you remove your tips.

I won't dispute what the Captain told you but when we were on the Conquest, DW was standing under the smoke detector with a lit cigarette. The alarm when off and immediately the phone rang. It was the bridge asking if there was a fire in the room. After I had assured them of what had happened they then turned off the alarm. It was all done over the phone and not through a speaker/microphone.

[stewpapa]

If there were cameras in the cabins, many mysteries of what happened to people who disappear on ships would have been solved. They have video down the hall of who enters which room when, but they never know what went on in the room or how the people disappeared or went over..........

unless.......they DO know and won't tell so we won't know they have cameras. :eek:

 

oh well, I don't care either way.

[Cobra1365]

I think it's a Laaazzzzzerrr!

[Cakraz]

Another urban myth about Carnival ...

I am by no means agreeing that there is a camera in the cabins, but why the many comments that a multi billion dollar business would open themselves up to lawsuits is befuddling to me. Multi billion dollar businesses do this all the time in the car industry, toys, and other areas.

 

If the ole United States of America would deliberately, as in, intentionally, infected a significant number of African American men just to see what the results of syplilis would do to them, why would something like this seem so outrageous? They were not concerned about lawsuits or infringement on peoples rights, I'm talking about OUR government officials.

Never needed a key to get OUT of my room. Sometimes, invited guests do. :D

[lady_cruiser]

OK Mach, what is this camera/motion detector/emegency light they are talking about?

[BaconIsGood]

Its not a camera, In fact its where they dispense the gas from. It knocks you out so they can come in and check for rum runners :P

[gman0119]

That being a camera would give me the motivation to give them a show that they would remember FOREVER, and it would make more than Youtube!!! I would be sueing Carnival for all the money they would make off of it!!! :D

 

Might have to bring the gas powered sex toys... :eek:

Corporations tend to be very concerned with financial liability (rather than, say, "doing the right thing"). You can't really compare them to the "government."

[xerenthar]

tuskegee and carnival cruises are about the same thing.

 

anyone want to go ahead and bring up hitler?
