Is it time to ring the alarm on internet door cameras?

With violent criminals running the government, yeah, I kinda do. You can't trust police body cams to work when they come knocking. Also useful for package thieves and people that deface your anti-nazi sign.

What a stupid fucking headline

Very telling that you put convenience on the same level as safety.

Also for laziness. I’m not answering the door every time someone comes around to sell me solar panels or driveway seal coating, but there are people who I do want to answer for
Plus I suppose there’s “is my dog barking for a reason, or just another dog walking by?”

It’s an invasion of privacy. But also doesn’t mean it’s not a benefit to it.
Authoritarianism is easily justified.

It's not that hard, and you only need cameras and the raspberry pi.
Pretty much any wifi camera that supports standards like RTSP or ONVIF can be made to work with open source camera stuff on the Pi. Also you can store the videos on the RPi's storage (USB or SD)
