I use Unifi's security cameras at home, they store all data on your own disks on-site. Owning footage is only half the story, privacy is also a big issue for me, I don't want images of my home being sent to corporations even if I own all rights to it. The only downside I can think of is that a really advanced thief might know to pull the hard drives and walk with them, but I suspect most residential thieves aren't that smart or wouldn't know what disk to pull from my rack. The other downside for less techy people is that without the cloud it's not that simple to view your home from a remote location. I just VPN into my home network and view it, but it took some effort to set that up, especially with dynamic DNS and all.
