Ring Ends Flock Safety Deal Following Ed Markey's Criticism

#Seattle, #USA
Ring canceled its integration with surveillance firm Flock Safety after a Super Bowl advertisement for an artificial intelligence pet-finding feature sparked widespread privacy concerns.While Amazon cited resource constraints for the mutual termination, the decision followed criticism from Ed Markey and civil liberties groups regarding potential mass surveillance.The partnership, which never officially launched or shared customer data, was intended to allow law enforcement agencies in the USA to request doorbell footage through a centralized platform.
