Bad security design made it easy to spy on video from Ring doorbells and insert fake video into their feeds

I like the idea of a video doorbell but don’t like the implementation of most of them.

I was thinking of creating my own using some variation of a webcam *wired into my RaspberryPi media center. I wanted it to be a Roku channel but those live video doesn’t seem to be compatible with their API.

*Wired because although WiFi has gotten much more reliable it still has issues. Plus as in the report in this article you don’t want people to be able to insert stuff in your wifi stream when it’s a security device.
