Do airport bathrooms have security cameras?

Question

I've always wondered this, because airports in the USA are pretty well watched, with security cameras everywhere, but are there security cameras in the public bathrooms? Some say no, because that'd be a violation of privacy, but some say yes. Also, when I went to DCA, in a pre-security zone (before you enter security) I entered their bathroom and saw no cameras - that's a big flaw in security! But I know airports are different - so tell me what you know...preferable if you work at an airport.

the cameras are not "in" the toilet, but they are aimed right at the door entrance to the toilet room in general.. They can see who goes in and out of the rooms..

There are laws against having cameras in any public bathroom because it is a violation of privacy.

Airport toilets do have cameras, this is where 'some' people try to hide their drugs before entering on the plane.

Always remember this...Big Brother is watching you whether it is a violation of privacy or any other kind.  Get out while you can...

a violation to privacy should also be considered..hence there can only be cameras at the front door..not exactly inside the rooms...
