Watts had a doorbell cam too: https://www.cnn.com/2019/02/20/us/chris-watts-shanann-watts-video/index.html The neighbor’s video broke his alibi. Yes, the family were still horribly murdered but the killer was arrested in a matter of days. Which is at least something. |
This! Article after article about how many times a person is unknowingly recorded during an average day. Stores, homes, stoplights, etc. Most of us are unaware. I know I was. |
+1 It's 2019. A obvious camera SHOULD be a deterrent to any odd behavior, period - crime, harassment, anything. One would think. |
I would watch, over and over again. |
Pp were you worried the neighbor would retaliate? |
Are you insane? How can you live this way? What a crazy reason to buy a ring video. Where are all the normal people??? |
Nowhere is it stated that’s the sole reason to buy a Ring. Just a refutation on PPs point that they don’t deter or alleviate crime. |

Saying the priest have broad access to your ring footage is a bit misleading.
1) they can access the footage through warrants, the same way they have always accessed security camera footage. They would be able to get access to a regular security camera too. 2) they can get a list from ring on who has ring cameras so they don't have to call every house like they would before. They can access the video IF you give permission (same as always) 2) they partner with ring to get the video footage that people upload to the ring app. So you put the video into public domain and the police can access it. AS of now, the police do not have unilateral access to your video footage unless you put it into the public domain or they go through standard legal processes. |
Also totally meant POLICE note priest lol. Although, I suppose God is always watching

It doesn't refute the point at all. It affirms it. They do not stop crimes from happening -- they simply record them happening. Closure for kids after you're murdered? Who walks around thinking things like this? |

We got our ring setup a year ago when we had a package stolen from our home. We did get it back, the thief took it (and our next door neighbors) around the corner, tore them open, and when finding it was doll house stuff just left it there. Another neighbor walking their dog found it and brought it back to our next door neighbor.
So now we have a Ring doorbell and a wired camera in the back. I'm going to extend the range this evening since we're into package thief time. I'd definitely not buy in a neighborhood if we couldn't have one. I think almost 1/3 of our neighbors do, and we live in a very safe area. |
Finally someone with some sense. |
You had to read the news from Charlotte to scare yourself today? |
But Toyotas and Townhomes are fair game? Asswipe |
