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 did when they bought the camera. ToS means something. People should start voting with their wallet more.

Must be a city folks thing... Don't have any friends with video doorbells. Not even our Amish neighbors... 😂

no people actually consented... but now that you are all persons, they dont need your fucking consent... it appears the conveniences had a high cost. https://www.williamsandwilliamslawfirm.com/a-treatise-on-the-word-person

I really wonder if at least 10% people here are surprised by this. We got so accustomed to this level of blatant violation of privacy.

no they didn’t agree. and the Silicon Valley Millennials will keep doing it until the people make them stop doing it. but the people would rather complain on social media, then lay on the couch watching propaganda TV eating chemical food.

It’s voluntary option you can turn off, for now….

tbh, anyone who did not see this coming is naiive. It does not make it less horrible though.

Wouldn't mind it but they're using "find lost pets" as a pre-text to request consent which is just straight up evil.

Thanks for pointing this out. We’re sleepwalking into the digital panopticon.

Yeah, every customer likely signed consent for this, because they are cunts.

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? 🤔

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.

Yup everyone did! Do you accept the Terms and Conditions….. Click yes and continue right into your own surveillance state 😂

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?
