The chances of a business having 24 hour monitored surveillance is next to none.
99% of businesses don't have monitored surveillance, so how is it any different than home surveillance? Except of course with a house you have the chance that someone will be nearby.
In most cases the monitoring company knows the line has been cut because they lose the signal.
Mobile phones and The Internet don't have the same reliability as landline telephones so you would need to make allowances for this. Like 5 seconds no contact triggers the remote alarm instead of instant alarm.
In Australia the alarm company will call to tell you your alarm has gone off and any other information your system provides them, then its up to you to deal with it.
You you would expect the would be thief to hear the transformer ticking away. But then again criminals are pretty stupid. I have been meaning to buy an electric fence transformer for sometime now. I have a great prank lined up.
No body cares that you do the right thing. At least not the people who are taking your money.
I used to buy DVDs and CDs but gave that up because I found better service elsewhere. Looks like I may soon have to do the same for video games. Shame really I do miss those little disc things sometimes.

That's just absurd, these systems are no match for a brick through the window.

WiFi surveillance cameras are very popular!
I have been meaning to buy/build a WiFi for ages.
I'm impressed that the cops answer alarm calls.

Why would you need to disable the security system? Most houses have glass windows.
The longer you remain near the house the more likely you are to be noticed.
112 should work on ANY GSM Mobile phone.
It will work if you take your phone into another country and don't know their local emergency number.

People install surveillance cameras because they work, not because they expect to be robbed by someone they know.
Well that's how they see it.
Proof is a burden they should not have to deal with.
Don't forget the neighbours WiFi

You want to break the law and get away with it.
That's very different from what I said.
Its another case of do the right thing and suffer the consequences.
