Currently the privacy zones have a quite big minimal size making it difficult to adjust properly to required boundaries. It would be helpfull to be able to define  smaller privacy zones, at least half of the current size, better a 3rd.

I would like to strongly support this feature requests!

 

In Germany / EU under GDPR it is forbidden to film public space / roads, thus the situation easily occurs that while the camera ist mainly directed at private property, a small part of an adjacent public street, neighbour etc can also bei visible and has to be set to private. Currently the minimal size is way to big, blocking out also important parts of the field of view.

 

Many thanks for your help in passing this along!

It would be good if it weren't just a square but had several points and could be made smaller. That way, the four options would be sufficient.

Besides smaller it should have several points so that the shape could be changed besides rectangular/square, also we should be able to rotate it so we could position it in diagonal if we need to (and often thats the case).

Also should be able to rotate the polygons defined as privacy zones
