I care. I have Ring because it was the fastest way to get cameras on my property after trouble with neighbors. I found out how liberal they are with user data and handing it over to law enforcement but I couldn't justify the expense in upgrading. For me this isn't a bridge too far in a moral sense but more like a powerful reminder I've been lax in my responsibility. I'm pricing out some Reolink cameras I can host locally at home and put on a private subnet I can just VPN into. I'll have to buy the kit piecemeal because I don't have a lot of money to toss around but I am firmly committed to getting off Ring cameras in light of this news.
