And we were expecting ... what, exactly? Part of the joy of being homeless is avoiding this crap.
Part of the problem with Ring is it's generally not self-surveillance. The cameras point onto the street and other people's residences. You get surveiled because some other random person thought it was a good idea.
It's a little pricey, but I am very happy with my Unifi setup.
This only affects the US though, right?
This is the newest way the US is backdooring their way into a surveillance state: private businesses feeding data directly to police. All the cameras in parking lots with the big solar panels also feed directly to cops. "Smart home" is just another way to extract value while harming you.
Cashes in on.
Edit: This made sense before OP's edit, I swear.
Haha, yeah I realized the start of my post was based on a misread. :P
