What have you caught on your ring camera?

I got my ring camera 2 weeks ago. Most of the detected motion is people walking by my house, a specific person up to 5 times a day, and my neighbor putting her trash in front of my house. The HOA is issuing citations for trash being put out too early before a pickup, and if it's not in the designated trash bin. I'm tempted to put the image of her doing so on her door with a request for her to put her trash in front of her own residence.😡 I'm hoping to talk to her in person first.

Doesn't have one violate privacy laws? Or is it how you share the data?

@Wol62 How does this 'violate privacy laws'?

@DreamyCrush The issue with this is that the owner of the doorbell has the footage at their disposal to use unlawfully without the knowledge of the neighbour. You are legally bound to comply with data protection law if you are aware of your doorbell posing a threat to a neighbour's privacy on their private property.

@DreamyCrush A person using a Ring doorbell was found to have “unjustifiably invaded” the privacy of their neighbour by using the device, a judge has ruled. Dr Mary Fairhurst argued that the devices installed on her neighbour Jon Woodard's house broke data laws and contributed to harassment.

@Wol62 This is a townhouse community. Eighty percent of the residents here have ring cameras. When someone drops trash in front of my house and I get cited for it, I have the right to prove my innocence by providing video of the volation.
