Vermont's legal peeping toms
See more » Crime & Punishment
In Vermont unless certain precautions are taken it is legal to go up to people’s windows and take photographs of them. One Montpelier’s camera was found packed with photos of couples making love and half-naked teenage girls, all on their own bedrooms.
Vermont has no “Peeping Tom” statute. Unless a homeowner has posted no trespassing signs on his or her lawn, anyone walking by is within his legal rights to approach a window, look inside, and record what he sees.

Comments
This should be opt-in, not opt-out. Signage that reads PEEPING 10PM-4AM.
