That reads like it is opt-out, too. Just knowing where Flock traffic cameras are is no longer enough it seems. This is horrifying, because Ring cameras are nearly everywhere.

I'd like to see a world with only opt-in. Opt-out should be illegal with extreme high penalties like 50..100% of netto profit.

That's a fixable problem!

Isn't Ring owned by Amazon anyway? Why'd you trust them to begin with.

So now every single Ring camera needs spray paint?

If only I had a Amazon Ring product … I already have 4 axes, a chainsaw and a stick welder … I’d be having such a good time now /s (and i’m not even in the USA)
