FYI: Ring has partnered with Flock. Ice has access to flock. We are under mass surveillance.
Ring is owned by amazon, also Blink is owned by amazon, if they are sharing ring doorbell footage then they sure as hell are sharing blink doorbell footage aswell

Can I get in bother if I feed a hungry child?
If your kid just happens to have extra food and they make their own decision to share with another child when you're not looking, are you even feeding the kid?? Or is your kid just sharing with her friends?? Social services and police are pretty useless, try NSPCC. Otherwise you need to start workin

My neighbor has been leaving notes on my door for 6 months about my "aggressive dog." My dog died 8 months ago.
Well damn I wish I'd heard about this before I got my blink doorbell. Google says they're a part of Anker, which is a brand I really like too. The blink subscription is $15/month and I'm not really impressed with the camera or sound quality.

Someone just tried to get into my apartment
My apartment is on the second floor, and is an external door. My plan is to go to the front office once it opens to see if the have any security cameras that might have caught it, which hopefully is the case. I have a blink doorbell camera, but the battery ran out a few days ago so it unfortunately

Amazingly... odd
My blink doorbell and cameras send me "videos" like this sometimes. Just a few still frames that are spaced out over a long time, sometimes hours. Blink is exceptionally buggy when it comes to the automated recording.

What’s a product where the cheap knock-off version is somehow unironically better than the expensive original?
TP-link's Kasa/Tapo system is good too. Doesn't require a subscription (but has the option for it) and allows local recording to an sd card for cams/doorbells. I scrapped my blink system and switched to TP-link. So much better. (And amazon isn't watching me...as much)

Looking for a doorbell camera that isn't a Flock spy
None of the residential security cameras are Flock spies. But the WiFi Cloud cameras spy for themselves. Avoid ALL WiFi Recurring Subscription Cloud Cameras, as they all have at least one vulnerability: Ring, Nest, Eufy, Wyze, Blink, Arlo, etc. Always PoE if possible, anything going to the Cloud is

Planning to install a full Blink outdoor system
I've had a blink doorbell for over a year. Liked it asit does the basics I need with no subscription....but then it stopped recording. Many people have had their systems broken since the end of may with no resolution. Some have been able to reset or whatever to get it going again but many of us have

Whole Blink system stopped saving clips ~2 weeks ago. Support did not even check
Had exact same problem with no luck too. Tried 4 USBs, reset SM2 many times, reconnect to different wifis, rebooted modems and wifi roiuter with no luck....think is I was planning to give up my Ring and go all the way Blink on video doorbell, think I am not gonna do that then with this PITA system.

Wired Doorbell
Yeah, I started with a Ring (when there was no subscription) and it was fine for my first doorbell. Battery life was decent. Kind of a pain in the ass taking it down and charging it. After 3-4 years, it was peeling and looked horrible. I had caught a deal on Blink battery camera a few years into the
