- However, a Gizmodo investigation, which began last month and ultimately revealed the potential locations of up to tens of thousands of Ring cameras, has cast new doubt on the effectiveness of the company’s privacy safeguards. It further offers one of the most “striking” and “disturbing” glimpses yet, privacy experts said, of Amazon’s privately run, omni-surveillance shroud that’s enveloping U.S. cities.
- Testing revealed that some coordinates were accurate enough to place a person directly in front of a Ring device; roughly four-to-six feet from home addresses volunteered by Neighbors users. Other coordinates fell just within eyeshot, pointing to the nearest intersection.
- The Ring data has given Gizmodo the means to consider scenarios, no longer purely hypothetical, which exemplify what daily life is like under Amazon’s all-seeing eye. In the nation’s capital, for instance, walking the shortest route from one public charter school to a soccer field less than a mile away, 6th-12th graders are recorded by no fewer than 13 Ring cameras.
One billion surveillance cameras will be watching around the world in 2021, a new study says "SubletSpy uses proprietary, world-leading artificial intelligence and image recognition to de-anonymize millions of short term rentals on sites like Airbnb" " Any private or unethical camera will be removed immediately upon e-mail complaint. Pleaseprovide a direct link to help facilitate the prompt removal of the camera." Know what's funny? I'n'I got cameras. I got eleven at the birth center and I got four here. But because I don't want to pay for data, I don't have Nest, I don't have Ring. I have everything running on Synology - the "syno" being "sino". All my stuff lives on my servers unless I want to look at it, in which case it bounces through MIaopai, a Chinese "youtube" so "sino" that they haven't even tried translating anything to English.
