A husband in Taiwan suspected his wife of having an affair. In September 2023, he found a used toothbrush at their holiday home, and garage video showed an unfamiliar man driving his wife there. Three months later, he opened their robot vacuum’s app to speak with her and saw an intimate encounter through its live camera.
He recorded the feed and used it to win about US$16,000 from his wife and her lover for infringing on his marital rights. Then the Taoyuan District Court sentenced him to five months in jail and fined him roughly $4,700 for recording private activity without consent.
