No wonder cops are so keen on Ring – they can slurp your doorbell footage with few limits, US senators complain

Re: A touch of irony

If your intention is burglary, then you _WANT_ the ring device on there.

Here's how it works:

Perp turns up at house with hoodie and mask covering face and hangs around.

Ring device: "can I help you???" (in sarcastic voice, for it is the homeowner on holiday)

Perp pulls out clipboard "can you sign for this parcel?"

Ring: "no I can't"

Perp then knows owner is out, so it's safe to go a-burgling.
