what kind of camera is this?

I live in a condo.  One of the neighbors who has made himself a nuisance has installed this on his door, about 3-5 months ago, he got a heavy package about 20 inch x 20 inch x 6 inch and said he would be recording out front.  My concern is this particular guy has relentlessly harassed people including make false police reports.

Is it possible that this is just a plate securing a camera that is inside the door positioned where the peep hole would be?

(that white rectangle on top with the 3 screws and what looks like 3 holes on front, possibly others on the side.  I didn't want to get too close.  According to him, its a crime for me to be outside on my own porch (that we share).

actually, it is ILLEGAL to record audio, and when you are recording to harass, that is illegal. i have a legal right to peaceful enjoyment of my home including the outdoor area, he is violating that right due to the pattern of harassment

I should be able to sit outside my door and have a conversation with a friend.

problem is cops in my town are incompetent....they believed him and ordered me inside.  I wasn't violating any state or federal covid rules.  I was no where near anyone else.  this guy thinks we are supposed to imprison ourselves...despite the fact that the covid authorities are encouraging people to be outside.

    If you're not breaking any laws then I wouldn't worry about it. Let him record all he wants, that's his lawful right.

    You should be grateful.

    If and when this guy makes a false police report against you, you can simply ask the police to verify it using his own video footage.
