    Worth noting that Ring has announced a partnership with Flock.

    So if you’re in the Ring ecosystem, maybe time to re-consider.

      Problem isn’t your own use, it’s everyone using them, as a network of real time surveillance cameras at the beck and call of corpo terrorists

        Definitely. You’re giving the surveilance state placement though.

      lol it’s literally an Amazon business. Should have been time to reconsider when Bezos loudly said that Ring footage can be used for anything they want.

      So many reasons to re-consider.

      I am stuck in a residence where the owner doesn’t consider surveillance to be a threat model. It sucks.
