Two viral videos showing a couple having sex in their private outdoor hot tub at a Hong Kong hotel have raised privacy concerns among social media users.
The videos, which were reportedly shared on Facebook and WhatsApp groups a few days ago, show a couple having sex in their private outdoor hot tub while another man films them from above.
It is not clear when or where the videos were filmed. Some social media users believe it was filmed by another guest or an employee at a North Point hotel that offers rooms with private jacuzzis on the balcony.

In one of the viral videos, the woman is seen sitting on the edge of the hot tub while eating a bowl of noodles with her partner’s head between her legs. The other video shows the man hugging the partially naked woman from behind.
The man behind the camera was able to film the couple through the gap in the balcony railing.

Some social media users have expressed concern about the design of the hotel, pointing out that those staying on the lower floors will not have any privacy from other guests on the upper floors. However, others called out the person who took the photo of the couple.
“It’s so cheap to take pictures of them secretly,” wrote one user.

“Have you thought about the harm you will cause to those involved,” said another.
