Weve reached a creepy level of public surveillance between the two. Large cities in the US have been scanning all license plates that pass these readers and keep logs of every vehicle that drivers on major roads 24/7.

Ring the company frequently hands over video data without the door bell holders consent. That mixed with facial recognition software cops have access towe living in a police state.

plenty of ring cameras on townhomes and doors directly facing public streets. hell Ive even lived in large apt complexes where my neighbors had ring doorbells in hallways.

call me paranoid but damn I cant imagine how much creepier really technology will get in the next 5 years. Whos gonna invent emp masking watch so your vitals get blocked by public cameras and scanning devices?

It's really weird that cops can get a warrant and get your doorbell footage from the company without you knowing it.

If it leads to catching scumbag porch pirates, Great.

But I have a ring and the quality isn't anywhere near good enough to make a solid ID of anyone lol.

You shouldn't have Alexa near your home in the first place.

I still don't understand the drawback

If you're not doing anything illegal, do you care if there is a creepy basement somewhere where someone is getting a salary to watch you enter and exit your home?

I feel badly for whomever has that job. Seems boring.

If it makes you feel better, facial recognition software is currently garbage.

doesnt dismiss my criticism at all. You can at least choose to turn a cell phone off or simply not have one.

its really not though. China has very good facial recognition software and frequently uses it to track its citizens down.
