"Paps" is a common colloquial abbreviation for paparazzi, referring to independent photographers who follow celebrities to take candid photos. The term is almost always used in the context of privacy, security, and the intrusive nature of celebrity culture. Using the shortened form suggests a level of familiarity with the entertainment industry or a disdain for the profession itself. It is frequently paired with other security concerns like "drones" or "windows" when discussing high-profile individuals seeking isolation.
