Isn't the whole point of the ad that they have a new feature and they want people to know about it? They're not making up the idea of finding lost dogs. They have a new feature where you upload a photo of your lost dog and it automatically looks for the dog in camera feeds.
- frm88 9mo agoThe ad states that 1 million dogs are lost every year and that Ring returns 1 dog every day. Could the uselessness of the feature be any more prominent?
- Auracle 9mo agoIt’ll probably be significantly more now that people know about it. And I doubt those 365 families a year think it’s useless.
- frm88 9mo agoIf you cannot take care/train of your dog maybe you shouldn't have one. Total neighbourhood surveillance for the benefit of the 0.03% is way out of proportion.
- wat10000 9mo agoWhat's the threshold for it being worthwhile to build a ubiquitous surveillance system? 365 dogs saved per year is apparently enough. How about 100? 10? 1? I'll also note that this is just a count of the dogs found by the system, not a count of dogs that otherwise would not have been found.
