@theronanfarrow: Ring, Amazon's camera doorbell company, says its increasingly advanced tech just makes neighborhoods safer. Critics contend it’s the largest privately owned surveillance dragnet in US history, with significant potential for misuse. Its "Familiar Faces" facial recognition feature tags family and friends—but the camera scans every face that passes, with or without consent. And "Community Requests" lets police request footage from Ring owners, routing it into evidence systems. An ad campaign touted how Ring cameras can be used to scan passing dogs to find a lost one. But a public conversation Amazon presumably didn't welcome started quickly: what if you swap the dog for a person? What do you think? #surveillance #privacy #technology #amazon #news #fyp

The moment I saw that ad, I knew women fleeing DV and future victims of trafficking were on the table.

Always find it so funny when Americans make fun of the Chinese surveillance state, my brother in Christ, you also live in a surveillance state, it’s just run by corporations instead of the government 😂

That’s why I use a subscription less solar powered camera from Temu so only the Chinese can see me

Sounds like it’s going to be used for racial profiling.

I’m worried this would be used by domestic abusers to prevent their family members from being able to flee.

My abuser a tech business owner used ring and CCTV to watch me when i left the state he was in. Ring made it possible for a violent wealthy man to remove my autonomy once I removed him from my life.

Also creepy: remember how Nancy Guthrie hadn’t subscribed to Nest, so ostensibly the footage from her doorbell camera shouldn’t have been saved anywhere. But wouldn’t you know it - they had it on a server.

Mind you facial recognition and AI has so much biases and racism built into the fabric of it. We’ve seen innocent black people jailed for false identity by the police. I reject this.
