Amazon's Ring Police Portal For Mass Surveillance
I found this dropbox link to Ring's marketing video for Police Departments to use their smart video cameras for mass surveillance.  This was made before Amazon acquired them.  At the end of the demo the CEO states that their facial recognition search feature will be available soon.This software is made in Ukraine and the hardware is manufactured in China.  There was no private company contract bid - Ring is just giving this to cops for free and offering customers a discount for letting their video surveillance from their home / doorbell be shared with the police in this portal.over 50+ local police departments are now partners.There is no encryption. There is no 2FA. There is no legal protection for privacy of citizens face's caught in these cameras and added to their facial recognition algorithms.Ring Ukraine is hiring aggressively, they grew from 10 engineers to 500 in two years. It's one of the top image processing R&D labs in Eastern Europe. Based on their job descriptions.... the facial recognition search being deployed in the police portals of Ring is pretty advanced.for more on Ring Ukraine www.ring-ukraine.comI got this ring marketing video from officer.com / a website for police industry news.
