AMAZON TURNED YOUR DOORBELL INTO A POLICE SURVEILLANCE WEAPON
Amazon-owned Ring just quietly partnered with Flock - a license plate tracking system already used by police and ICE - meaning footage from your front door can now feed into nationwide surveillance networks.
Did anyone actually agree to this?

They agreed when they bought and use the product...
Hmmmm. Thats wild! Especially since Ring Cameras are not only used/sold in the USA.
Does that mean that the American Government can effectively spy on international Ring Product users? 🤔
I think this is not limited to the US. Germany already shares data with US. I have to assume our regime is also using/sharing this specific data.
Interesting. Then I have to guess that all Ring cameras, moving forward, are compromised & should be seen as active national security threats or the like.
Definitely something to ponder over while looking at security of self.
Well, yes, thats how I look at it. But thats also something you cannot influence yourself, unless you know someone and inform them, thats all you can actively do.
Okay there might be another thing you can actually do. Build your own, open-source alternative 😉
Yeah, I hear you 🤓 but I’m not only worrying about my own safety here as that would be air for sure.
It’s more about how everyone thinks Ring Cameras are completely safe but here we are with another reality they haven’t even thought of yet.
As someone that lives on the other side of the world, this is pretty concerning knowing that visuals are now accessible by another country’s Goverment agencies.
Yeah, I see your point, but thats not in your power 🙂 people are ideots and/or comfortable.
True. But at least now I can make it known so they don’t have to be idiots about it 🤓
Yes.
I’m fine with it
So you want the country to be taken over by the gangs… got it
People are fine with it until they are impacted.
You probably wouldn’t like it if they mailed you a ticket based on a minor traffic infraction caught on one of the cameras. What if your location history caught by a series of these cameras was leaked on the internet?
A better system is for them to have to gain your consent prior to using the footage on a case by case basis.
Pffft gangs were let in to give up your rights... like 911... wake the fuck up you vaxxed sheep.
🛌 no!
Yes, everyone agreed when buying this.
Ignorance and comfort are the enemy of a free society and free, sovereign individuals.
There comes the Phrase "Naaaah I got nothing to hide (so I dont care)"
Only the informed, wake once are able to counteract. The rest is asleep.
This is unethical by Amazon. It shows what companies will do to turn a profit and when they are coerced by governments.
Do you have a apple or android or a microsoft? They all do the same thing.
Unfortunately, it is a constant battle that we all have to deal with.
Yup everyone did! Do you accept the Terms and Conditions…..
Click yes and continue right into your own surveillance state 😂
STOP INVITING SURVEILLANCE TECH INTO YOUR HOME. I want a dumb house. I can turn the heat on and off myself. I have a peep hole in my door and a camera system I own. More importantly, I know my neighbors and we’re all well armed.

Implied consent.. Probably on the terms of agreement that no one reads.
No I didn’t.
Did anyone agree to having chemicals for GeoEngineering and who knows what else rained down from above on a daily basis?
