Know your audience OP.
Hours of entertainment, depending on where.

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.

California resident here. To the person who said they would never live somewhere where something like this is not allowed, you need to understand that more and more states are getting on board with making this illegal as more and more people sue.

If a crime happens within 5 miles of your home, you can be certain the police have access to your doorbell video 24 hours before and after the event. So if you live in a high density area, that is pretty much 24/7. Oh and don't get me started on Amazon dot... Radius is half a mile.
So what? The police can see how many delivery people came to my door on any given day?

The California legislature is a joke. Passing hundreds of laws annually to save the people from themselves!

A neighbor doing something stupid. I would block out her face. Can I post it? Anyone?
You can do anything you want to do. You can also become well known as a d*bag. Your call.
