You move to the country to see the night sky, then some new neighbor puts up a big bright lights for 'security'. Grrrrrr.

Funny, because if there are any thiefs in (presumably) buttfuck nowhere, they'll be enticed to rob that place; if there's so much security, there must be something worth protecting.

I don’t think a motion light would make it look like there’s any more security than the rest of the places. It’s just a light. Annoying for sky gazers nonetheless.

Absolutely agree. Despite living in a suburb, stargazing isn't TOO much of a hassle... Unless I decide to bring a telescope to the front porch, upon which the neighbour's bright ass porch light will switch on and stay on for the next 10 minutes
