Mom Wants To Put A Camera In My (16m) Bedroom, Is This Legal?

Hi, I haven't been able to find a straight answer for this. My mom wants to put a camera in my bedroom. Obviously, I don't want or consent to this.

You would think she's joking, but she's definitely not. We already have a camera in the kitchen which also covers the living room. It's weird. I'm not even a bad good, I do great at school and home.

Anyway, I couldn't find any laws preventing it besides maybe child porn laws...

This feels like a huge invasion of my privacy, especially at 16? Is there a law that doesn't allow this? She said that I can just undress in the bathroom so it wasn't illegal! I really hope that this isn't true, since I do literally everything in my bedroom.

Thanks!

Edit: Thanks for taking the time to read this and/or provide answers for me. Some people seem to wonder why she wants cameras, and I promise it's not for my safety or something like that, she is oddly controlling/narcissistic in a way. Talking to her face to face would probably just get me in trouble tbh. Im not against talking to like a mandated reporter or something.
