Ring would not disclose the number of communities with such partnerships. Sharing video is always voluntary and privacy is protected, according to the company and police. "There is nothing required of homeowners who participate in the subsidies, and their identity and data remain private," spokeswoman Brigid Gorham
said. She said customers can control who views their footage, and no personally identifiable information is shared with police without a user's consent. Realistically, though, if police want video for an investigation, they can seek a search warrant. Tech industry analyst Carolina Milanesi said engaging with police and offering incentives is a "very
smart move by Ring" and a missed opportunity for competitors, including Google's Nest and smaller companies such as Arlo Technologies and SimpliSafe.

Through the subsidy programs, Amazon "gets to offer, at taxpayer dime, discounted products that allow it to really expand its tentacles into wide areas of private life way more than it already has," Mohammad Tajsar said. The Los Angeles suburb of Arcadia has spent $50,000 to offer discounts on 1,000 cameras.

storage is essentially a microSD card, which is generally a one time purchase, while cloud
video storage costs an average of $5 a month or $50 a year. ÀHow We TestedVideoFor daylight video tests, we wrote on a poster and placed it 16 feet away to compare each camera's indoor video quality. We used two lighting settings: natural light with the lights on and natural light on its own. We found the video was often better with the lights on than with natural light alone. The Flir FX and Foscam C2 had the best results with lights on. In low light conditions, the Nest Cam Indoor and the D Link DCS 2630L were better.
