Anyone know what is the better alarm system for homes? I heard APX, Brinks/broadview (i think is the sub company), DMP or slomin’s. ADT i heard is too big for it’s own good. I’m leaning towards APX, Brinks or DMP.
i did check for reviews online, i checked also lawsuits and systems….not really decisive. That’s why I was looking here. I think I maybe leaning to slomin’s or brinks.

I am doing some research on home audio surveillance. I found this discussion:
http://answers.google.com/answers/threadview?id=355638

which basically said video surveillance is legal under state/federal laws, but if you add audio to it, you run into legal problems. There are legal grey areas where the law is untested and in some cities/states illegal. Why, if you have a nanny cam with audio in your own home, is it illegal? And what can I do to change these laws, test it in court or lobby some congressmen?

You worry about surveillance laws because of litigation, who wants to spend million defending lawsuits.
