I tried to have a conversation about ethics with a person who doesn't have any.

What a waste of time that was!

what's a camera baffle? Is it just a way to take advantage of occlusion, or is it a privacy thing?

I think it is layering prims to "smack" the camera around if you try to use the advanced controls to pan through walls and have a look inside locked off places.

It's easy to look anywhere, even far away places. This can be easily tawted by doing the following.

ctrl-alt-shift-1
ctrl-alt-shift-2
ctrl-alt-shift-5

Move the camera so the av's can be seen.

ctrl-0 (buch of times)

??

profit!

PS: I do not endose the use of this type of behavior, be nice to people. Also if your alone and feel you are being watched (aaah the paranoia... ) turn on Debug->Character-Show Look at. This is a great feature too if you walk into some area with people and want to know who is cheacking you out.

The worst I've done was finished up a skirt I was commissioned to do completely... and realised that I mixed up the front and back so that the skirt would be put on backwards.
