Hacker News.

Just a decade after a global backlash was triggered by Snowden reporting on mass domestic surveillance, the state-corporate dragnet is stronger and more invasive than ever.

As a working dad with kids, I like my doorbell cam. My self hosted, non-cloud, local only doorbell cam that is.

My f’ing camera feeds are mine.

But what if some stranger loses their dog? You could have helped, but NOoOOOOooooo you had to be selfish with your privacy you MONSTER.

Got any tips on a good model to get? I want one that i can access remotely via my phone. I have to relevant tools to make it remotely accessible but the cameras need to be able to speak to my software. I have a raspberry pi that i can use as a server.

Correct. My database of my neighbors faces and biometric data are MINE. I am its rightful guardian

Well, cross the wrong street once and now you're in somebody else's neatly AI analyzed, uploaded to remote corporate servers and then handed to the government camera feeds...

The world is a joke. Everyone is "entitled" to their privacy, but it isn't massively illegal to just have a camera running somewhere 24/7 or even recording in public with a phone.
