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

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

This is probably fine.
It's not perfect, but you can get blink doorbells with a sync module and have videos stored locally for free instead of in the cloud like ring. It's still owned by Amazon and probably only a matter of time, but if it helps someone feel safer now it is an option.

Home security cameras without monthly payment
I had an Arlo system for a while before switching to Blink and honestly the subscription is so worth it and reasonably priced compared to other security systems. Unlimited 60 day cloud storage for $12/mo ($4/mo if you just have one device) is really good imo. I'm able to live record, motion detect r

Batch save files from Blink App ?
Thanks for your reply. USA Customers like myself are not allowed to request a Batch Download (UK can & other countries that have similar laws as UK). So ... I have been 1 by 1 going through oldest videos first & deleting the ones that don't have our dog in them & saving the ones that do. It is quite

It finally happened ðŸ˜ðŸ’”
Ya, we've had several same experiences. These cameras are motion sensitive and so many factors affect them, delta or difference in temperatures probably main shortcoming. I have had Blink for years and they help but ya, the couple times anything happened, they just aren't reliable. We bought a Reoli

Ring cancels its partnership with Flock Safety after surveillance backlash
Yes, I'm familiar with it, as I have a Blink system with the hub. I also bought it with the plan to have my videos local, rather than on the cloud. But after the recent controversies with Ring and Nest I've grown skeptical. I'm not a networking expert, but my question is how is it that we are able t

Comcast internet-only: what is your charge?
I haven't noticed any change in my internet uses that would cause me to change or upgrade my plan. I actually use more internet now than I ever did because now I have replaced the "box" which provided cable TV with streaming on my TV thru free apps like Xumo, Tubi, etc. Also now I work remotely and

Is there a name for the effect of products getting worse with time/popularity?
I don't use Uber much. I think 3 times in the last 10 years. Uber Eats I've used once. I think it's a weird service. I would be super pissed with no information about my food delivery after an hour. Even after 20 minutes of no information at all, I would be mad at the whole process. Thus I don't hav

Curious about Blink cameras: question within
I don't have Blink cameras but I bought a house that came with two Blink doorbells. So here are a few comments in no particular order: My house has no doorbell wiring at all. So installing a traditional wired doorbell is a non-starter unless I want to fish wires through the walls. That really limits
