Fuck that. It absolutely is not a norm to have anyone with an internet connection watch you drink, and is an obscene safety risk. Making a camera publicly accessible should automatically revoke your liquor license and permanently bar the owner from ever being able to apply for one again.

People absolutely will be stalked and attacked as a direct result of this insane horseshit if it is not shut down.

It is unconditionally not acceptable.
