    They don't bother me; because I'm not doing anything illegal. If someone wants to follow me around; more power to them. Please buy me lunch for the pleasure of following me around - It's only fair. Your in a public place, anyone with a cell phone can record you too.
    I actually wouldn't mind if they placed a cameras at each entrance and exit of our subdivision. We can work backwards if something is stolen from our subdivision.
    Some city and counties has a ordinance that allow them access to your ring camera; no subpoena needed. If you have a full security suite with internal cameras; what's to stop them from looking at those too - it can't be used in court because they weren't suppose to do that.

    I feel that this is blaming the equipment; NOT the user. The pro-gun advocates uses this also. guns don't kill people; people kill people. It's not Flocks fault that law enforce and non-law enforcement people are abusing the equipment. o_O I don't see air-tags being made illegal, because there are multiple cases where they were being used to track and stalk people.

    YMMV

    I read that these things are being banned, but I’m not sure why

    Until THEY change the definition of what "wrong" is. These are operated by a private firm, not city, state or federal agencies (though they can access this info, and do).

    You are apart of the most at risk population.

    Many things aren’t possible to be used responsibly because human nature will never allow it, certainly not during our lives.

    One day, a company was putting up cameras in front of my house. It was pretty unsettling, like big brother

    I really feel like we’re on an unstoppable ride to 1984

    And, you, none the wiser, when "they" snuck in later that night and implanted a sensor behind each ear:eek:

    Some states and school districts has actually banned 1984; it was required reading in my day.
