Also, if you're using a cloud-based camera for private spaces? Well, that's kinda a decision you made for yourself.

Not even just cloud based. I remember a decade or two ago a lot of security cameras were plugged into the regular network with enabled remote access. You could even find them through Google using specific search terms and a lot of them had either no or default logins configured. So you could basically spy into all sorts of peoples homes. If I ever were to install cameras in my home, they'd be completely separated from everything else.
