But the friction occurs when we forget the camera is a tool. We cannot outsource our vigilance to an AI and expect no consequences. Every camera installed is a negotiation: you are trading a sliver of your privacy (and your neighbor's) for a sliver of safety.
You do not have to choose between safety and privacy. You can have both using modern technology and smart layout.
There are also concerns about data security. Many home security camera systems store footage in the cloud, which can be vulnerable to hacking. In some cases, hackers have gained access to these systems, allowing them to view live footage or even communicate with homeowners through the camera's audio feed.
