Erin Andrews victimization by a stallker who modified a peephole and filmed a video using a cell phone camera has been well documented. What has not been publicized is that unmodified hotel peepholes do not put a guest’s personal privacy at risk. Hotel management is able to take three basic measures that can help to eliminate the risk of future peephole related security issues. One distressing recommendation that has arisen as a result of the publicity is the recommendation for women traveling alone to block the hotel room peephole. Instead, women should always use the peephole before opening a hotel room door to avoid the risk of entry by unwanted visitors.
