I bought a ring camera in 2018 and I haven't replaced it. They disabled color view to try to get me to to buy a new one. Thankfully I haven't connected it to Amazon or anything yet. I immediately disconnected it after reading this, fucking Amazon.

They deliberately disabled an option in order to coerce you into buying a new one? That is insane.

How did they disable color view if you didn't connect it to amazon?
