Dystopia notwithstanding, Ring's commercial about using their surveillance to find lost pets makes no sense.

They say 10M pets are lost per year & their service finds "more than 1 dog per day." So let's even say generously 500 dogs per year.

Out of 10M lost pets, they want Americans to commit privacy suicide for a .005% success rate???

"We fail 99.995% of the time! Let us violate your privacy!" is a helluva way to burn $10M in ads and destroy your brand.

I'm uninstalling my RING today.

@QasimRashid I’ve been a happy Eufy user for many years. The video is stored inside my house. Ring has always scared me with their poor security of data

@craz8 @QasimRashid We've had Eufy for just over a year and love that we can store at home and not have to have connected to the internet. Our data. Image quality is amazing.

All of our cameras, mostly Reolink, have the Internet access explicitly blocked via the router. It's the only way to be sure.

Of course, I can still access them remotely via the VPN to my house, but they are blocked from contacting anything on the Web.
