Great. Now package that as a plug-and-play product so more than 1000 nerds will use it instead of participating in the largest dragnet in history ;)

This is only half the problem.

The other half, at least for Ring doorbells, is making it easy to get push notifications when button pressed, with instant two-way connection for chatting through the camera.

It's already hard enough as a "certified homelabber" to get these things set up and running.

Well, open Reolink and UniFi website and there it is.

(Yes, I know you did the post with "haha, this is too hard for average human", but it really isn't. Don't be a big corp shill.)

I've found Reolink to be pretty much plug and play. Totally local. The NVR itself has PoE ports so all you have to be able to do is run a long ethernet cable.

Security systems used to be 100x the cost (parts+install) before the cloud because you essentially needed a local NAS and to run a bunch of PoE enabled ethernet to each corner of your house.

Hm. So all those "security systems" are defeated by a $1 jammer?
