I’d be perfectly happy to buy tons of gadgetry like ring and nest products just so long as it doesn’t need some kind of cloud service, and it doesn’t need any kind of subscription.
The drone looks really well designed and practical (compared to buying dozens of separate cameras you can have just a couple, and a drone).
Yet most things that come to market are exactly this. Cloud services, subsctiptions and integration with these “smart speakers” (I’m not getting one of those either, so long as they are connected to whoever sold it rather than just to the weather web service).
I wish someone who didn’t have an interest in knowing everything about everyone but could actually make money from hardware would do this.

Is there really no market for that?
