Do any #tech people here have any resources or camera recommendations for setting up a local-storage security system whether that be an SD card or like a server of sorts (absolutely *no* cloud)?

Every time I look up an article it gives me things like alexa and I absolutely do not want any sort of camera that is owned by a company that could view my footage.

I have PTSD from a couple of separate events (including a stalking situation) and would love to have a security camera, but I don't want it to have cloud access of any kind.

Googling this has not been very helpful, so if anyone knows of any good videos or articles explaining this process or even just what kind of camera to buy in order to start the process, just let me know!

@skeletonpup hey, one of the possible options is a UniFi video setup... there is cloud access, but it's optional. We use UniFi video at a few sites and it seems to work well

@12 @skeletonpup I’ll second UniFi, this is what I use at home. It’s kinda expensive, but very reliable and I own all my footage on equipment exclusively at my home.

@avojak @12 @skeletonpup I'll third unifi. We also use the same cameras as baby monitors. I love that it's all local on a hard drive in my basement.
