This object may look like a menacing CCTV camera, spying down on all around it for some vague, faceless overseer to use. But in actuality it's a birdhouse, a perfectly innocuous item whose sole purpose is to provide shelter for our feathered friends. And just look clever.

I wouldn't mind it if all the CCTV cameras spying on us all day were replaced with these.
