Back in October, Ring announced that its devices would soon be looped into a network of Flock AI surveillance cameras. That network, an investigation by 404 Media found, has been available to local and federal police and enforcement agencies like ICE — leaving many worried that their Ring doorbell cams are now feeding into a government panopticon.
Sure enough, as anti-ICE protests ramp up throughout the US, activists are pushing a grassroots campaign to convince Ring users to smash their devices. Doing so, they say, could help deprive the federal government of footage it’s using to enact a campaign of harassment, arrests, and deportation. “Smash your Ring doorbells,” progressive activist Guy Christensen urged his 3.5 million followers on TikTok.
Put tape over them, or a band-aid. Less expensive and you can take the tape off when normality returns (who am I kidding) or smash them later if everything goes pear-shaped.
That’s why I don’t use devices like Alexa and Siri is turned off on my phone. Too much eavesdropping and potential for systems/information access being sold to the highest bidder.
Boycott.
sounds like a lawsuit. The right to privacy is constitutional still. Forced sharing of private information from ring to the government without a warrant or cause seems like a governmental overstep.
