four cameras outside and zero cameras inside. They can watch the UPS guy deliver my gun parts and ammo till their hearts are content.

Guess I better stop mowing the lawn wearing my short-shorts... don’t need that shit ending up on youtube

Funny-in the 50's and 60's eavesdropping devices being planted in someone's home by the government was a common sci-fi theme. Not one, to my recollection, ever referred to the "victim" actually buying and paying for the devices used to spy on him.

^^^^^

Just one more link in the privacy invasion chain imo. Each little intrusion gets accepted as “not that big a deal”, and the water boiling the frog gets turned up a tiny bit more.

Privacy no longer exists outside the home- I see no reason to invite it inside any more than is completely necessary. For example: “smart” speakers. I’m shocked at the number of people that do, given the reports of them communicating outside the home automatically. And the number is going up.

I will never own one of these things.

My UPS man is offended !

Ring devices go on the outside. No functional cams inside my house.

could this simply be stopped by unplugging the computer cable from the wall ?

Soon it will stop inside your brain.

Its really no big deal, with the massive delays in server upload times by the time the Ring employees can see the video, whatever they are looking at is well past happening.

The sad truth is that some company invented affordable tech to implant communications and internet access devices, people would sign up in droves. The fools would say “If you’re not doing anything wrong, what’s the harm?”.
