Key points
- Ring unveiled a flying indoor drone and autonomous patrol robots
- The devices are built to cover blind spots fixed cameras miss
- Privacy questions include footage access, storage and police requests
Ring, the Amazon-owned security camera company, on Tuesday unveiled flying drones and wheeled robots built to watch over homes and businesses [1].
The lineup includes a flying indoor drone and an autonomous business robot designed to patrol, investigate and eliminate blind spots that fixed cameras miss [2]. The Daily Mail reported the drone can patrol rooms on command and record suspicious activity day or night [3].
Free Speech Frontline's take: a robot that roams your home recording video is a powerful tool, and a powerful temptation for hackers, data brokers and government. Before buying one, families should ask who can access the footage, how long it is stored, and whether police can get it without a warrant. Security should not cost you your privacy.

- Yes, sounds useful
- Only if the footage stays private
- No way, too much surveillance
