    I am a privacy activist

    Here is footage from the Nest cameras inside my home

    It’s a bit hard to take seriously

      I know it’s a “me” problem, but I find it hard to take seriously those who need to add the brand/model.

      It’s a camera, does it add extra info that’s a nest? This is something that bothered me since the times of “it’s not a tablet, it’s an iPad”

        It adds the info that it’s a cloud system owned by Google. Whether your camera footage stays in your home or gets uploaded to the cloud makes a pretty big difference

        Yes it adds the information that a supposed “privacy activist” uses googles cloud connected privacy nightmare. It shows you that he is not just dumb for inviting trouble like this, but also technically incompetent in his field.
