I disagree.
I think what most people are forgetting/ignoring...is the layout of CYV's.
Given that we're not talking about windows/sliding doors facing the street, or an open yard, where privacy can't be expected, but instead are facing a walled in area and what is otherwise a very private setting...it's perfectly reasonable for folks to expect a little privacy on that side.
I think the poster above who said that maybe the landlord is just a nosy/Peeping Tom sort, is IMHO...probably the closest to the truth.
Putting a lock on the gate by the tenant, so that someone wanting to access the 'private' back yard and has to ring the doorbell (removing lock it when not home)...is a simple solution that avoids confrontation with the landlord.
