A neighbor recently got a Ring out of some security concerns (partner got deployed for a year and they have two young kids). However, I've think it's made things worse in some ways:
- Every potential interaction is viewed with suspicion
- Everybody who walks up to the door prompts an interruption wherever you are (on your smartphone)
The local neighborhood sharing aspects of Ring strongly remind me of NextDoor, whose suspicion raising and general uselessness can pretty much be summed up in this tweet:
