Amazon.com Inc.’s Ring home doorbell unit says it will stop letting police departments request footage from users’ video doorbells and surveillance cameras, retreating from a practice that was criticized by civil liberties groups and some elected officials.
Sure. They have to.
It was the “evidence of ongoing emergency” that I really wanted to call attention to. It sound good, selective, responsible even, but if it amounts to an additional box on the form that says “check here if there is an ongoing emergency” then there’s really no more guarantee of privacy than there was before.
Oh that makes sense
