“So violated”: Wyze cameras leak footage to strangers for 2nd time in 5 months
I saw that when it happened. I'm not really bothered by the fact that a random person somewhere may have seen my driveway. If it kept happening, sure. I don't have the wherewithal and time to set up a camera on a server, and in this day and age I feel like some sort of security camera is necessary. There's a serious case for privacy, but not all of us have the capability or concern that the echo-chamber on Lemmy does about immaculate privacy.
You'll get downvoted for having this opinion here but it's a real take. Everyone has their own level of privacy they're okay with and yours is a bit lower than the average user here.
If you're okay with the potential risk, then that is your own choice, no one is forcing you.
Thank you for understanding that. This platform assumes the whole world functions as they do and has no understanding for people who either just don't care or lack ability.
