    The only thing it will do is to further reduce our privacy and expose our data to big corpos

    Oh that’s awesome I didn’t realize cameras are able to create a system where the basic necessities of life aren’t locked down by money, where people aren’t being disenfranchised/marginalized/exploited and not having to fend out for themselves figuring out any way to survive but instead working together to answer everybody’s needs

    This just in, Ring’s CEO admits to being a complete idiot. Look at the cameras in the UK. Mass surveillance does not stop crime.

    Countries with extensive cctv networks still have lots of crime, almost like surveillance is the wrong answer to lowering crime or something

      It’s a good answer if your goal isn’t actually to lower crime but you say it is so you can add buttloads of surveillance for data gathering

      It’s a good answer if you want to watch all the crime that’s still happening

      Honestly if we want crime to go down we should just stop reporting it.
