In reply to Wondering. I was using a Canadian company but they sold their US customers to another company in the U.S. They allowed me to keep the equipment since I was out of contract and I refused to become a customer of the other company because they wanted me to sign another contract. I have to do all my own maintenance. I change all the batteries every 2 years and costs me about $38 for them. I pay $34 a month to keep the equipment active

When setting up my home security system, I immediately removed Ring from the list of equipment candidates because of this reason. Like many on here, my personal experience with law enforcement is nothing shy of horrible. They lied on the arrest warrant and in the charges. My lawyer told me what they were doing and even what they would say when he filed an amended discovery request, and they did exactly that. They lied to me, my wife, the judge, and my lawyer when they didn’t need to. So what makes me think they have my best interest at heart when taking my front door video?

I do have to admit, with the exception of 1 officer years ago, the local sheriffs so far have been nice and have treated me and my wife with respect, and have done none of the things the FDLE did. But I never let my guard down.

When you read this article, use the map to zoom in on your area. As usual, Floriduh is well represented in spying on its citizens.

Also read the comments to see how delusional the general public is about the reality of living in the police state called Amerikkka. Unless impacted by “law enforcement,” the mindless herd thinks all police are heroes and the USA has the fairest justice system in the world. Nothing is farther from the truth.

Never forget, the goal of a police state is to have all its citizens in a criminal database to have a ready supply of “suspects,” “persons of interest,” and “perps” to feed into the prison industrial complex.

Our system of mass incarceration with no rehabilitation, is nothing short of a system of gulags. 2019 Amerikkka makes George Orwell’s 1984 look like post WWII America.

In Illinois, it is illegal to take any type of picture or video of a minor without parental permission. If you install a Ring doorbell, are committing a felony. The first RSO in Illinois charged with this charge is serving a three year sentence because he was playing “air-soft” at a giant paintball range. He was using his GoPro camera and had it on as he walked out to the range where a father and his two teenage sons, age 13 and 15 were at the desk signing the insurance waivers. The charge is: child photography by a sex offender, a Class 2 felony.

I have an alarm, camera and it is nice to have. I have had it for years and never a problem. It does work as a deterrent for most people. I also like the camera recording what happens around my home. This way if I ever have to give out free dental extractions for people trying to hurt me and my family it's all recorded. As far as law enforcement using my camera? That's a no go..

I too have security cameras, door bell to phone notifications, and an alarm system. I have had my widows shot out, my house broken into, and other things done to my property. Additionally I also like the fact it keeps a record of the time I come and go so if someone said I did something at a certain time, my camera shows my vehicle sitting in the driveway and when I come and go. Since getting the system in 2014, I have had zero issues. I also have numerous signs and stickers plus no trespassing signs. It is worth the peace of mind.
