Telesforo Aviles, who installed ADT systems in Texas, gained the camera access by adding his own personal email address to customer accounts on the ADT Pulse system.

A former ADT technician has admitted to exploiting the company’s security cameras to spy on clients having sex in their own homes. On Thursday,35-year-old Telesforo Aviles pleaded guilty to illegally accessing the security video feeds belonging to about 200 customers in the Dallas, Texas area, according to the Justice Department. Last year, police arrested Aviles, but at the time, the motives behind the spying remained unclear. Federal officials now say they understand why. “Mr. Aviles took note of which homes had attractive women, then repeatedly logged into these customers’ accounts in order to view their footage for sexual gratification, he admits,” the Justice Department said in a statement.
