Ring paid somewhere between $8 and $10 million for a 30-second Super Bowl spot to tell 120 million viewers that their cameras now scan neighborhoods using AI. The math is wild. Ring has roughly 20 million devices in American homes. Search Party is enabled by default. The opt-out rate on default settings in consumer tech is historically around 5%. So approximately 19 million cameras are now running AI pattern matching on anything that moves past your front door. Today the target is dogs. The same infrastructure already handles “Familiar Faces,” which builds biometric profiles of every person your camera sees, whether they know about it or not. Ring settled with the FTC for $5.8 million after employees had unrestricted access to customers’ bedroom and bathroom footage for years. They’re now partnered with Flock Safety, which routes footage to local law enforcement. ICE has accessed Flock data through local police departments acting as intermediaries. Senator Markey’s investigation found Ring’s privacy protections only apply to device owners. If you’re a neighbor, a delivery driver, a passerby, you have no rights and no recourse. This tells you everything about Amazon’s actual product. The customer paid for the camera. The customer pays the electricity. The customer pays the $3.99/month subscription. And Amazon gets a surveillance grid that would cost tens of billions to build from scratch, with an AI layer activated by default, and a law enforcement pipeline already connected. They wrapped all of that in a lost puppy commercial because that’s the only version of this story anyone would willingly opt into.

Nick Wright COOKED James Harden for 3 STRAIGHT MINUTES 😭🤣 “I would not trade Darius Garland for James Harden under ANY circumstances… All this guy does is quit on teams and FOLD in the Playoffs… He’s an all time great player, an all time great quitter, and an all time great choker” 💀 (via @FTFonFS1)

This is false and a gross misinformation of the infrastructure bill. What’s up with Pennsylvania politicians ?!

TVs used to be heavy af

Jemele Hill gets weirder and weirder each time I see her tweets. Like what’s the point of this tweet ?!?

I truly implore folks not to argue with “people” on this app about important events. You’re going to drown in a sea of bots, paid foreign accounts cosplaying as Americans, and truly the worst of our citizenry. Talk to real human beings in real life. You’ll feel better.

Summer will be here sooner than you think. Applications for Summer Youth Employment Program are now open at nyc.gov/SYEP. Don’t get caught sleeping.

- this needs to be said louder.

"@chicoBean called me straight up. ... That's important for people to do that, and I think so many people don't do that - just have the conversation. Joke stealing is a no-no." - @RyanDavisComedy

Eli Manning and the '07 Giants. Beat Tampa Bay on the road. Beat 13 Win Cowboys on the road. Beat 13 Win Packers on the road. Beat 18-0 Patriots in the Superbowl.

Today, let us remember Martin Luther King as he was: A Black radical anti-capitalist, anti-imperialist, revolutionary Christian who was murdered as an enemy of the State. Anything else is just a lie.

Lmfao A+ Trolling !!!

Honestly, Ben Affleck actually knowing AI and the landscape caught me off guard, but as a writer, makes sense. Great takes across the board.
