The linked story is quoted twice, starting at “On May 31…”

And I know it’s not Cory’s fault, but within the quoted story it’s redundant as well.

The Ring representative said that the cities with the best “opt in rate” for sharing Ring footage with police are active on social media.

The agencies with the best opt in rate are the ones that are actively sharing on social media, having community outreach speak at meetings and spread via word of mouth,” the representative said.

It reads to me like a fractal pattern. Down, down, ever down.

If you agree to private surveilance, you’ll also get public surveilance.

Right after you say you never give anonymity, you quote, “an Amazon PR person.”

Not surprisingly, if you don’t agree to public or private surveillance, you’ll fucking get it anyway.
