📝 My mom doesn’t want me to put up an outdoor shade, AITAH?

For context, I live between my mom’s house and her boyfriends. My mom lives with her boyfriend, but my mom still pays all the bills in HER house, but my 30 year old brother lives there with his girlfriend, both of them for free. I haven’t spoken my brother in 9 years. He’s abusive, physically and mentally. I put up a shade on my front porch, to block his cameras from seeing me on my porch, but my mom is asking me to take them down, saying she wants to “see down the block”

I haven’t spoken to him in 9 years but he still constantly speaks about me and tries to gain any access he can into my life. I just want privacy, knowing that he sits there and watches me on the camera. It feels like an invasion of privacy, since the cameras are pointing directly onto my front porch.
