Yes. In fact, it's long past time, and it's already been done countless times before; nobody seems to be listening. People have been pointing to growing authoritarian States for years, and yet the entire globe seems to be all-in on giving police states another try (or are so privileged they don't care).

Time to take back your privacy yourself. Hopefully this article will reach some normies who didn't give it any other thought.

I’ve noticed that anyone who has gotten one newly installed can’t stop looking at it for every small thing. It’s like built-in paranoia. Not to mention that every time I take a walk in my neighborhood I’m now on bunch of different people’s cameras without even knowing it.

I did that for about 6 months, mostly to see how good the detection was in frigate (new 0.15.0 release last week, fyi) when I first got it running but the novelty wore off.

I see people in line at the grocery store watching their family watch TV in their living room. That's creepy to me.
