Neighborhood = Homeowners association or civic association.

Either Homeowners association or a Civic association. Both are legal entities.

IanCal, sorry you feel this way. Our goal is simply to help police do their job. Today, only 13% of crime is solved due to lack of evidence. We are trying to help drive that number to 100% and eliminate crime in our neighborhoods.

llsf, great points. we let the neighborhood decide who has access and how access is granted.

some neighborhoods give every resident unlimited access while others require a police report before logging in.

the neighborhood owns the data. we have zero plans to sell the data.

our goal is to provide police with the evidence they need to solve crime.

today only 13% of non-violent crime is solved. we think it should be 100%.

Alexro, there are clear and large signs about the cameras at the entrance to our neighborhoods.

Our neighborhoods are not large public roads, they are typically 100-400 home communities. You would never have to enter the community.

each neighborhood owns their data and they would have to opt-in to any type of data sharing between neighborhoods.

our goal isn't to build a big-brother system. we believe that if you are on a public road there isn't a perceived expectation of privacy.

Generally speaking, only gated communities are on private streets. Otherwise, every street is public and managed by the local city/county.
