I’m surprised that someone that would use Anna’s Archive, would use Google as their search engine.

Are you referring to “tap to pay” with your phone that uses NFC?

If so, you are out of luck. Only options (at least in the USA) are Apple, Google, and Samsung.

Key point: "Flock users can request that Ring doorbell users share footage to help with “evidence collection and investigative work.”

This is not any kind of live link. It is just another way to request a specific video recording be shared by the user. The user has full control. Ring already has the same system in place on their “neighborhood” platform.

Do these work with Home Assistant? I’m not an Apple user. Anyone know if video can be stored locally instead of Apple servers?

The Navy would be NCIS and they all have access because they are law enforcement agencies.

As someone who has worked fraud and online investigations, and both written and served search warrants; it is not an option. A probable cause affidavit is presented to a judge and if the judge agrees there is sufficient probable cause, a search warrant is issued. This is an order by the judge and not optional. The judge can hold the company in contempt if they refuse to obey his/her order.

“helped” is very misleading. Companies can’t refuse to provide information they have when served a search warrant / court order. These companies DID NOT choose to provide the info on their own.
