Once they unpacked, Barker, who works in IT security, conducted a scan of the Wi-Fi network and found a camera the owner had not mentioned.
一卸下行李，从事信息技术安全方面的工作的Andrew就扫描检查了Wi-Fi网络，发现了一个房东没有提过的摄像头。
He was then able to connect to the camera and view the live feed.
接着他成功连上了摄像头，看到了实况。
The next day, the Barkers notified Airbnb, but he told the media that the company treated the incident like a canceled booking and just temporarily suspended the rooming post after a privacy investigation that the family found unsatisfactory.
次日，Barker一家向爱彼迎投诉了这件事，但他告诉媒体，爱彼迎的处理方式像是在处理一次取消预订，在一次不那么令Barker一家人满意的隐私调查后，暂时地撤下了这间房的租房信息。
It wasn’t until Nealie Barker, Andrew’s wife, posted details of the incident on Facebook that Airbnb removed the listing and admitted that the original response “did not meet the high standards we set for ourselves.”
直到Andrew的妻子Nealie Barker在脸书上贴出了事件的细节，爱彼迎才下架了这款房源并且承认一开始的回复“没有达到我们自己预设的高标准”
This isn’t the first time that an Airbnb guest has discovered hidden recording devices in a rental unit.
这不是顾客第一次在爱彼迎的租房发现隐藏的录制设备了。
As Ars Technica reported, a woman found a remote-controlled camera in the living room of an apartment she had been planning to stay in for a month in 2013.
据Ars Technica报道，2013年，一名女子在她原本打算租住一个月的公寓的客厅里发现了一台遥控摄像头。

She sued both Airbnb and the apartment’s residents, alleging that the camera had filmed her without clothing and recorded intimate conversations she had with her partner.
她起诉了爱彼迎和房东，称那个摄像头拍下了她没穿衣服的画面，还录下了她和伴侣之间的亲密对话。
In 2017, Florida police arrested a man for video voyeurism after his Airbnb guests reported finding a camera in the bedroom’s smoke detector.
2017年，佛罗里达州警方以视频偷窥罪逮捕了一名男子。他的爱彼迎房客举报，在卧室的烟雾探测器里发现了一台摄像机。
Airbnb’s terms of service dictate that hosts must disclose the presence of cameras to their guests. It’s unclear how common a practice it is for Airbnb hosts to hide cameras in their units, but if you’re particularly worried about prying eyes, there are imperfect ways to search for invasive devices.
爱彼迎的服务条款规定，房东必须告知房客屋内摄像头的存在。现在还不知道爱彼迎房东在公寓里藏摄像头的做法有多普遍，但如果你特别担心潜藏在屋内的“眼睛”，还是有一些不太完美的方法可以帮你找出这些侵犯隐私的设备的。
“Hidden cameras are probably rare but there are steps that an average user can take to increase their chances of finding one if one exists,” Barker wrote in an email to Slate. “Since our incident I will be performing network and ports scans at every accommodation we stay at.”
Barker在一封给Slate杂志的电子邮件中写道：“隐藏的摄像头可能并不多见，但如果存在的话，普通房客可以通过一些方法更容易找到它们的可能。自从那件事后，我会在我们的每一个住处进行网络和端口扫描。”
That seems like a good practice. But it also requires some knowledge. When the story hit the internet, lots of people found themselves wondering how, exactly, to scan a network. The good news is that doing network and port scans for suspicious devices on the local Wi-Fi network doesn’t require as much technical knowledge as you might fear. Nor does it require expensive gear.
这看上去是个好习惯，但也需要一点知识。这事在网上传开以后，大家都想知道到底怎么才能扫描网络。好消息是，在本地Wi-Fi上对可疑设备进行网络和端口扫描并不需要你担心的那么多技术知识，也不需要昂贵的设备。
Various apps that can perform the scans for you; Barker recommends Angry IP Scanner, Network Mapper, and Network Scanner by First Row. In his Ireland Airbnb, Barker used Network Scanner for the network scan and Network Mapper for the port scan, but most apps have both features.
有多种App可以为你执行扫描程序。Barker推荐Angry IP Scanner， Network Mapper和First Row公司的Network Scanner这几款。在爱尔兰的爱彼迎公寓中，Barker使用Network Scanner进行网络扫描，使用Network Mapper进行端口扫描，但大多数App都有这两个功能。
Check to see whether there are inexplicably two smoke detectors in the same room.
检查一下同一个房间里是否有两个不明用途的烟雾探测器。

Network scans generally allow users to view the IP addresses and manufacturers of devices connected to the Wi-Fi. In Barker’s case, the manufacturer of the hidden recording device was literally listed as “IPCAMERA.” Once you have the list, it’s a good idea to work backward. “You should in theory be able to tick off each device found through the scan to a device you are aware of and can physically see,” Barker wrote.
网络扫描通常能让用户查看连接到Wi-Fi的设备的IP地址和制造商。
Barker找到的隐蔽式录像设备的制造商被称为“IPCAMERA”。当你有了制造商清单，回去找找摄像头是个好主意。Barker写道：“理论上，扫描检测出的所有设备和你能找到、见到的设备都可以一一对应起来。”
If you see a device that looks suspicious, a port scan can help to identify its purpose. The scan will list the different ports for connecting to the device and the services they provide. The services will be listed as short codes; a Google search will generally reveal what the codes mean.
如果你发现了可疑的设备，端口扫描可以帮助辨识其用途。端口扫描会列出连接到这一设备的不同端口及这些端口提供的服务。这些服务将以短代码列出，一般用谷歌搜索就能找到这些代码的意思。
For example, the code RDP indicates that users can remotely control the desktop of the computer. The codes RTMP and RTSP are for video streaming.
例如，远程桌面协议代码（RDP）代表用户可以远程控制电脑桌面。RTMP和RTSP代码用于视频的数据流。
These sorts of scans will only work if your device and the camera are connected to the same Wi-Fi network. If the camera is on a different network, or if it stores the footage on an internal hard drive, you’ll have a harder time finding it. For more details on how the scans work, check out the guide that Barker wrote for travelers after his Airbnb incident.
只有当你的设备和相机连接到同一个Wi-Fi网络时，这些扫描才会起作用。如果相机连在不同的网络上，或者它将视频存储在内部硬盘上，你找起来会有点麻烦。想了解更多关于扫描工作原理的细节，请见巴克在爱彼迎事件后为旅行者撰写的指南。

Good old-fashioned sleuthing can also be helpful for finding cameras. Consumer-grade hidden cameras come embedded in a variety of different commonplace objects. Glance through the website for BrickHouse Security or the Amazon search results for the term “hidden camera” and you’ll find fake alarm clocks, USB chargers, buckets, lamps, stuffed animals, and bottles of Mountain Dew ($429–$519 on the website Covert Law Enforcement, if you’re curious) with discreet pinhole cameras.
肉眼寻找摄像头的老方法也管用。普通消费者就可以买到嵌在各种各样日常物品里的隐藏摄像头。在BrickHouse Security网站或Amazon搜索“隐藏摄像头”，就能找到：带有隐蔽针眼摄像头的假闹钟、USB充电器、水桶、台灯、填充动物玩具和激浪饮料瓶(如果你好奇的话，可以在“隐蔽执法”网站上找到429 - 519美元价位的)。
When you enter a room, you should check around to see if anything looks out of place. “These things tend to stand out like a sore thumb,” says Dan Tentler, founder and CEO of Phobos Group, a cybersecurity firm. For example, he recommends checking to see whether there are inexplicably two smoke detectors in the same room.
当你进入一间房间时，你应该看看有什么不对劲的东西。Phobos集团是一家网络安全公司，其CEO, Dan Tentler说道，“这些东西往往格格不入，非常显眼。”比如说，他建议检查一下同一个房间里是不是莫名其妙地有两个烟雾探测器。
Holding an object in your hands can also help to determine whether it’s fake. “If there’s a can of Mountain Dew randomly sat on the kitchen counter … and you walk up and pick up the can, you’re going to immediately know that it’s a hidden camera,” says Tentler. Look for reflections when you shine a light on objects, which may reveal the presence of a lens.
有时候你掂量掂量就知道是真是假了。坦特勒说:“如果厨房柜台上随意地摆放着一罐激浪饮料……你拿起来就能发现那是一个隐藏的摄像头。”用一束光照射物体时，寻找反射光线，摄像头可能就暴露了。
If and when you find such a device, make sure to alert Airbnb or the hotel. You might also want to inform law enforcement, especially if you’re in a state where two-party consent is required for recording. “If you find a camera, take pictures of it,” says Tentler. “Make noise, post pictures of the thing on the internet, on Twitter.”
如果你真的找到这样的设备，一定要警示爱彼迎或酒店。尤其如果你所在的州的法律规定录像必须征得双方同意的话，你还可以告诉执法部门。“你要是找到隐藏摄像头就拍张照片，”Tentler说，“把照片发到网上，放到推特上，发出声音来。”
