The reverse peephole viewer is designed for police to look through a peephole from the outside and let them see perfectly through into an apartment or house. While you may start to think that this is a pretty cool little gadget why don’t you think about the real people that are probably buying these things. All of your neighborhood creeps probably carry these things around in their pockets.
This gets me thinking though, if someone holds this up to the outside of a door then they can see perfectly through. What would the person inside the apartment/house see if they happened to look through the peephole? If there was enough light entering the peephole would they see a gigantic eye? Hmmm…too much thinking!

That just creeps me out. I’m going to start carrying some masking tape with me when I travel for the hotel room door…
Geeze, I forgot about hotel rooms and that is the obvious one! It is so easy then…people just have to walk up and down the hallway.

While this is cool and sweet that the cops have this… I’m sure they’ve had this since at least the 80’s. If it was going to be used on the black market by creeps i’m sure it would have been done back then.
