Cameras and surveillance software/services with features like this are in high demand. They do improve safety, and they do prevent loss.
I'm putting something together for work with off-the-shelf cameras, maybe it'll be similar enough that it can be adapted for home use.
I think there is a moral good produced by some amount of private surveillance, on and near a person's own property, controlled by that private person; so we just need to fix people's expectations from these companies which subsidize their services by selling out their customers.
- beatgammit 7y agoI think we just need a security and privacy focused alternative that doesn't suck that: - does all video processing on the client (e.g. as it's generated) - optionally uploads encrypted video to the cloud - stores encrypted video locally - allows sharing video by downloading and decrypting that video on your device - never stores the key in the cloud Ideally, it would be a drop in replacement for Ring, but with the complicated logic done on the camera or your viewing device. I'm happy to pay extra for that, though I think it can be competitively priced. It should also come with an optional VPN device/service to access your cameras when outside your network.
