Don’t be fooled by Ring’s latest attempt to make mass surveillance and real-time identification the new norm in our neighborhoods. eff.org/deeplinks/2026/02/no-o

@eff I have a cat. He's my best-friend. And he's a tabby. And all tabbies look the same. I could pick him out from a flock of tabbies, but nobody else probably could. So how the hell is a camera, from a click away supposed to tell the difference? Logic says it can't. So ring must think there are a lot of stupid people in the world....oh wait...there are.

@praetor @eff If you can recognize him just by looking then it's possible for a computer program to also do it. Are current computer programs capable of it? I don't know.
