If the video leaves your premises don't trust it.

Security cameras in general provide a false sense of security. Best they do is catch someone stealing your package. If it's an Amazon package you can just report it on the app and they'll immediately give you a refund.

Yea, sorry that was rude. Just frustrated by how amazon contributes so significantly to so many of the US's problems, and yet so many people are still perfectly happy to continue supporting them.

I'm not either and I wasn't trying to promote Amazon. At this point it's hard to ditch. There used to be Jet.com but that got bought by Walmart.

Someone should put a ring camera in front of a screen that rotates through different photos of non-white people generated with AI so the facial information being sent back is flooded with fake data.
