Amazon's ad-hoc Ring, Echo mesh network can mooch off your neighbors' Wi-Fi if needed – and it's opt-out

I'm not defending Amazon, but this is not actually a worry. The traffic from all the devices goes through an Amazon VPN - the IED info (child porn, ...) will have been sent to an Amazon IP address, not to yours. Amazon will be responsible for receiving the information and will have to answer for where they sent it (which will be to your neighbour's device).
