#2I suspect Ring and other doorbell cameras are making the job of the police far easier on the whole than the little "inconvenience" mentioned in this article.

With the access police departments have to ring door bells I'm sure they can remotely turn them off or prevent them from alarming the owners. /s
These things are a privacy nightmare. I'm glad I live in a country where private surveillance of the public is illegal.

#6FBI should be worried about how the police is infiltrated by white supremacists [1] and their tendency to shoot people for no reason, I'd say that's a much higher security risk.

I always wondered why Tony Soprano didn’t have surveillance cameras everywhere. His most clever opsec was “stand by this loud machine when talking“.

So you have cameras on your house. Are you watching them 24/7? No, otherwise you wouldn't be able to do anything else. Systems like Ring and even the software for full camera systems can notify you when they detect something. Great, too late as the coppers are already beating on the door. I'm not sure how effect that is.
