And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.
Ring still collects all your videos and "shares" them with police without a warrant or your permission. Who knows what they do with the rest of the videos they collect.
Police have subpoenaed doorbell cam video. They've also skipped the homeowner, and asked to company to cough it up without any warrant. And they get everything, not just the 30 seconds they say they wanted.
All the comings and goings of everyone, subject to full facial recognition scans and time logging. And every package dropped off. Nothing Big Brother-ish about that, right?
If you don't have one, they can't get it.
And the first guy who sells a look-alike that's a fake with just a battery to run the blue light is going to be a millionaire.
Ring is the Surveillance State, with a happy face painted on it. Just like your electronic-leash cell phone, just like your internet-accessible tattletale car computer. You may as well just sign up to put a police body cam on yourself, and wear an ankle monitor for life, while you sign in and out each day with Uncle Government. Anyone who can't see that isn't tall enough to talk about the topic.
For crying out loud, man, Enemy Of The State came out in 1998 and The Net in 1995, and they weren't science fiction then, they were ground reality at that time, twenty-five years ago. Do you think FedGov built a giant facility in Utah to hover up all electronic data for $1.5B because they didn't intend to use any of it?

The Person of Interest series’ premise has become reality.
DeleteI thought this was a great company ...until they were purchased by Amazon. NOPE.
