    I’ve been saying this since the Nest and other similar bullshit came out. In the electronic security industry, we’ve been installing hardwired PoE cams for over a decade and a half. High resolution, high bandwidth, no batteries or separate power adapters, centrally managed LOCAL video storage. And not vulnerable to RF jamming/hacking. Stop buying the shitty Harry Homeowner equipment.

    In the 80s and 90s stores used to put up signs that read “monitored by CLOSED CIRCUIT television” because even back then they didn’t trust wireless and they made sure you knew it wasn’t.
