This is exactly why I ended up going with a Ubiquiti Unify setup for my cameras and smart doorbell. After getting insanely annoyed with Nest and their price increase/feature reductions I just went all in on my own set up. I doubt UI will ever charge monthly for their services because you need to buy the hardware and run it locally. Of course they can, but I'm banking on them not doing that.
