Nassau County already do this. They post on ring to alert neighbors about potential theft and crime in the area.

I'm sure they also have access to the videos posted on the app.

As for racial profiling, unless the NYPD will specifically be going after persons of interests of a specific race group, then, they'll be destroying their trust with the public and their promise to figh crime.

In the past, NYPD's Stop & Frisk program appears to target a large group of people who were black, basically kickstarting the racial profiling claim and community members not trusting them.

I do think NYPD on ring will help decrease pirate thieves by a lot. Why? The faces are VERY clear on camera. A lot of people would be caught.

There's basically no consequences to getting caught though.

Yes 100% but that's on our DAs and politic system. The cops can still do their jobs and we should expect that of them yet hold political positions accountable

No, that's on cops. Cases are built by cops and now they collect evidence (or don't). The DA can't do anything when presented with the corrupt garbage NYPD presents them, before they send their best to lie on the stand only to lead to cases being thrown anyway.

The trust is destroyed, you said it yourself

Ring as a company, and the CEO or inventor, is full on pro police having access to your account-it was this way before Amazon bought it and I don't really care, but some of you may want to Google it and get more info. I read an in depth article, and have no idea where it was, but if you're concerned about your civil liberties I wouldn't use Ring. They can't get me for shit so doesn't matter to me. I'm too old to care anymore. No one is coming for your guns Toby. I'm a leftwing liberal in a Red State and I just don't give a shit. You can buy guns, fireworks, weed in most states and ride your motorcycle.

My concern is oppression of minorities and voting rights. I'll be dead in 25 years. The environment is f'd and God bless the rest of you cuz we all are gonna need it to get thru the shit storm a brewing.
