Why are people disconnecting or destroying their Ring cameras? (opens in new tab)

finally seeing sense

paying a monthly fee to upload every person who passes your home has become for too expensive.

bored of watching delivery drivers drop off your parcels.

bored with watching your teenage kids arrive home from school.

bored with checking your phone every 5 minutes because the local cat has set off your ring camera.

you realised it was a complete waste of time and money when:

  your home got broken into via the back door
  your home got broken into via a side window
  your home got broken into via an upstairs window
  the burglars used a wifi jammer to render your ring camera useless
  the burglars wore full masks and were unrecognisable
  having a RING camera does not actaully protect you or anyone else. 

yes, there are probably one or two examples and thats it, A very poor outcome when you consider ring cameras are fitted in millions of homes.

Why would anyone with an ounce of common sense have a camera fitted up their arse?

If I had a camera up my ring, I too would be disconnecting and destroying it.

I wonder if these can be hacked to work only locally.

In my case, a critter cam or a well pump monitor (are the status lights green?) are out of even wi-fi range.

I don't believe that they are in large numbers.
