Preferentially, I would like to suggest that the owner shouldn’t have any control whether or not the data being transmitted by these devices are fed into the panopticon of the epstein class.
They don’t have the right to sell tracking data for anybody walking in front of their house. I’m sorry if an owner wants to sell the video data coming off of their camera off to the police so that they can track random people walking through the neighborhood, I have problems with that.
@GhostOnTheHalfShell @heidilifeldman
I suspect there are people here who would do it for free.

@GhostOnTheHalfShell @heidilifeldman I don't think the owner of the camera is even aware that the data is being used by Amazon, in most cases?
They're not being paid for it - the data is being taken.

@AbramKedge @GhostOnTheHalfShell @heidilifeldman worse....they charge you a subscription and double dip by on-selling it.

@heidilifeldman oh, yes please! Someone definitely needs to do this. I would love to jailbreak my devices and connect them to a home server only now that they are evil.
@arisummerland @heidilifeldman I'd love to do this. And if it can have local (on my network) smart detection (people, parcels, dogs etc) that would make me happy.

Yes, probably not.
But I’d also like to suggest that if they have these devices and they know the data is being transmitted, they are complict . My attitude is these cameras are known to be transmitting information and I don’t know if somebody outside of that building whether or not the owner gives a shit or not. My privacy should depend on the moral sentiment of some paranoid asshole, who wants to track who and what walks by his house 24 7.

The reason why I say this is because not only our flock cameras sprouting up in my area, particularly around the perimeter of the Presidio in San Francisco, but surveillance cameras are popping up on the outside of houses all over the neighborhoods. Everywhere I look, I see cameras, staring in my direction.
It’s obscene and I’m kind of fed up about it.

As for me, it may not worth to spend time hacking devices which are not intended to be hackable.
If someone really wants the locked device to not share data, network firewall/filter should good enough (+probably avoid devices with cellular modem).
What's wrong with the link, is it paywalled? -

“The only winning move is not to play.”For that money and the assumed effort to hack an assumingly tamper-resistant device, one would go further making a DIY platform with off the shelf components, that your local hackerspace could provide.

I don't understand why these are not illegal in the EU.
The Irish branches of B&Q sell them. -

Fuck no. If I even was inclined to figure out how to disable Ring, I'm sure as shit not going to help Amazon improve their mass surveillance technology. Especially not for a paltry US$10k.
I'm taking that shit out. Completely. I'd burn it down. For free. For the sheer satisfaction of it. #privacy

@heidilifeldman It connects to WiFi, though set up an firewall at your router and block te ip to Amazon. With Wireshark or other software you can identify the datastream.

They're probably rather motivated to brick the cameras, even for free…
