So what? The police can see how many delivery people came to my door on any given day?
+1, good, great to know if something happens that the police can easily help by accessing our camera's if we cannot.

not PP, but in our neighborhood (we have an HOA) we aren't allowed to have Ring or anything similar because apparently along with recording what's happening at your doorstep you can also position it so that it records what your neighbors are doing. I live in California if that matters - we're pretty much not allowed to do anything due to so many ridiculous regulations but that is a completely different conversation.
They are illegal in my state too. If they record what is going on with audio without the consent of the person than it’s a felony and you can face jail time. Not a risk I would take just for a doorbell.

You can turn off audio but its private property so that is absurd you cannot record on your property.

I would not buy in a neighborhood that didn't allow a video doorbell.
Yup. That’s ridiculous.
