 Two weeks ago, I got a letter from my landlords, informing me that abuse of fire alarms is gonna be fined blablabla.
I got the letter one week after my alarm next to the kitchen went off when I made a steak (don't judge my cooking techniques).
Alarm is connected to some central entity and I immediately pushed the "off" button when I noticed it.
I am still not sure what to think of this letter.. On the one hand I of course like fire protection, but I still felt somewhat violated in my privacy by receiving a letter from the landlord just because I heated my oil too much.
