n NYCity landlords can install video cameras INSIDE the building pointed at tenants doors....

We are under a system called rent stabilizaion, and if a landlord can
catch an Illegal subletter, he could legally decontrol the apartment and
that could possibly Double or triple the regulated rent...

so that is a very good incentive to spy!

what is the intention? to catch an illegal subletter or a sex pervert?

to see if there is drug dealing or prostitution going on?

OR to see if the super is cheating on his wife?

The landlord has a right to protect his property from
THEFT!

And an Illegal subletter is STEALING from the landlord.

By violating the original lease, and NOT allowing the landlord to rent to the person he wishes to and at a much higher rent...

So its theft,just like if someone stole your car or stereo.

Cameras for security

Cameras are for security and for records if something happens to tenants in common areas - hallways, parking garage, elevators - just like cameras at ATMs (did your bank ask you to install them?) NO, if you don't like this level of protection, move at the end of your lease. There will be 10 people waiting in line for your apartment for this type of security/service.
