A woman in China has invented a clever and straightforward method using a rope and a large piece of cloth to create a tent over her hotel bed, aiming to shield herself from potential hidden cameras.

Her innovative approach has sparked a discussion about privacy concerns in hotels.

The woman, known by her surname Dang and hailing from Luoyang in central Henan province, recently shared a video demonstrating how to construct a makeshift tent to protect her hotel room bed.

However, she did not disclose the name of the hotel or its location.

“I have read many reports about hotel guests being surveilled by spy cameras. It seems nearly impossible to safeguard ourselves from prying eyes. This deeply concerns me,” Dang shared with the Yangcheng Evening News.

She explained that her initial idea was to buy a tent to place on the bed while travelling and staying in hotels. However, she dismissed this option due to the high cost of tents and the limited space they provide.
