Posted by 2Xplorations Now, I wonder about these door bell cams and Wifi camera net works Im sure some enterprising high school kid OR the police can hack into those. I don't really know.

They don’t have to hack into them. The police have asked people to voluntarily provide them with their footage, “in order to make our neighborhoods safer.’ Here in the suburbs, people will happily line up to do so.
The police department in my town recently started a “registry,” where people can register their cameras with them in case their footage might be needed to help solve a crime anytime in the future.
Amazon’s “Ring,” and the “Neighbors,” app have worked especially hard at assisting police in this endeavor:

indefinitely use that footage whenever and however they want once it’s given to them. Furthermore, residents’ cameras are often recording public spaces within the camera’s field of view, which opens up some serious fourth amendment issues that I doubt most people have even thought about.
