currently using Ring for home surveillance, but looking for a Canadian alternative. I was looking into Eceboo as they are Canadian based, but their parent company is based in the US. do you think it would still be worth it to go for them, or do you know of other alternatives?

thank you!

    I do care about privacy, and have been trying to convince those I live with to switch away from Ring because of it. I’m hoping there will be more convincing now with everything happening in the states.

    I’m not the most knowledgeable on stuff like this, but with an airgapped system, how would that work for connecting? Realistically I’d like to be able to check the cameras when I’m away from home, and to me that sounds like it’s local only?

      I’m just guessing here.

      But it could be possible to put the doorbell and camera system in its own network that’s only accessible via the local network. If you make a VPN to the local network, only the person with credentials could VPN into the camera network from outside.

      I’m a noob at this though, so I’d need a guide.
