I think we've known this about Ring cameras for awhile now at least. Lowkey I kinda seethe about any neighbors buying that spyware shit. It's not like the fucking cops give a singular shit about home robberies anyways.

But when you do experience a home invasion they will blame you not installing Spyware on your front door for why they won't bother investigating.

And if you do have said spyware, the robber could be holding up his drivers license reciting his social security number while doing it on video and the cops still wouldn't bother pursuing the lead.

Absolutely. Anything that can be hacked by some uneducated douche is going to be exploited by the government.
