Without anyones permission, that is.
I know that, when on private property, you need permission to capture another person with a still image camera. But what about a video camera? For example, Home Depot has video cameras everywhere. But I don't own Home Depot. I know Home Depot would not let you use a video camera inside their store - if you tried to do that without their permission they'd usher you right out the door ASAP. I guess I just answered my own question? Unless someone smarter than me contradicts me I guess a tenant cannot use a video camera on a landlord's property so the answer is NO. Or...does it matter that the building in question is a living space being used and shared by other people and thus that gives any tenanta the right to use a video camera in any area of the property where said tenant not have any right or expectation of privacy (for example, hallways)? I'm in California.
