Honestly kind of a bad article in that it fails to really explicitly name the exact concern they have.
Is the issue that the police can tap into a network of privately owned security cameras to get around the cost / drama of setting up public ones like they're already doing with Ring? Because while, yes I agree that's a problem, it doesn't necessarily sound like the problem lies with companies trying to protect their stuff from being stolen and catch the people stealing it, but with police data access and privacy laws. I mean, are you going to ban people from sharing security footage of crimes? Sharing it with a news network? Sharing it with local neighbourhood groups? etc. etc.
Like I agree it would better to not setup as many security cameras, and address crime through other means, bur the reality is that if your house gets broken into, you're gonna set one up the next day.
