    If you have a Ring (Amazon) camera, you are -- or will become -- a tool of the surveillance state. Is that really what you want to be?

    With Ring, American Consumers Built a Surveillance Dragnet

    Ring's 'Search Party' is dystopian surveillance accelerationism.

        @dangillmor This eventuality is exactly why I researched and purchased a Eufy instead of Ring. Eufy records locally, not the cloud, on a continuous loop that overwrites itself about every 90 days.

              @dangillmor it was my IMMEDIATE thought, especially recently, much as the doggo thing is cute (and very clever cutewashing).

                @dangillmor thanks for sharing! I thought I was the only one who was scared about this ad. Combined with Tesla camera surveillance this is a wonderful toolset for any authoritarian government.

                  @dangillmor Dammit! Why does society choose to walk into these things all the time?

                  We could've easily avoided all of this if we choose to just reject this, but that's only possible if we choose to.

                    @PamelaBarroway @dangillmor Smart move! In fact, we need to go back to the days where everything was stored locally as oppose to depending on companies to collect, store our data for exploitation.

                    Just keep things safe and simple. That and it will also cut down on all the electricity that gets wasted too.

                      @dangillmor I wonder if we have to worry about other ring type cameras too or just Ring camera... a member of my household just bought an offbrand one...
