    By “crime,” he means homeless and people who look like immigrants.

    Considering how few laws are enforced these days, having a ring video of a crime doesn’t really mean anything.

    I’m more concerned about political uses of Ring footage than I am package theft.

      When he said it could ‘zero out crime’ he meant ring could ‘make a lot of profit’ if they get lots of government contracts

    Man, I bet that, when this guy watched The Ring, the first thought that came into his mind was that the characters were being idiots by not making as many copies of the tape as possible and then selling them!

      No joke, in college a month before the ring came out, we got a tape mailed to us with nothing indicating what it was, boom it got us.

    Why couldn’t they do it in the past 12 months, and why should people believe anything they promise?

    That’s literally the plot of Watch Dogs, no?

    I hope we’ll also get Dedsec with it. While the game had it’s flaws, the Dedsec broadcasts are such a cool visual feat.

    And the beauty of it is, that all that AI makes it possible to select specific instances and people we’re gonna call ‘criminal’, and others that we’re just gonna automatically ignore.

      Financial crime does more damage to the country and might even be a driver for physical crime? Nah, let’s surveil those people hit hardest by the financial crimes of others.
