The general "rule of thumb" (and most laws) is that anything can be in frame (that isn't yours) where there isn't a reasonable expectation of privacy. That would include areas like front yard/drives that aren't behind a privacy fence. A distant home is usually okay, the house next door isn't.

I installed a PoE system at my sister's house. One the cameras cuts across the neighbor's front yard and down street. Neighbor's drive is in frame, but house isn't. Neighbors complained, but camera stayed. A year later, neighbor's daughter assaulted by bf in drive. Neighbor was then glad for camera.

Anecdote: A few years ago a pedestrian was hit by a car in front of our house. We have Nest cameras. The police asked for the footage and I provided it.
Don't know if they couldn't get it directly from Google or it was easier to ask first.

I would prefer that all my neighbors had a DVR/NVR that wasn't cloud connected, but they had a hard drive in their home. If someone is missing, police can ask each person for a copy of video for specific views ("street facing cameras") during a specific time frame. I think that's a good balance.

Nobody wants their neighbor's cameras aimed at their windows and that can be mitigated (all states have laws). But it's a good thing to have your streets covered, as well as the entrances and exits to the neighborhood. It doesn't need to be "cloud connected"; it just needs to exist.

Just looking at Google Maps of Nancy Guthrie's neighborhood. That place is a suburban nightmare. Lots of in and outs of neighborhood without municipal cameras. Lots of "privacy vegetation" in front of people's houses blocking neighbor's security camera views of the road. Not a great situation.

If someone ever did take my mother and sent me a ransom, I'd probably reply with, "She's old, no ransom. If you kill her, I'll inherit millions in insurance and property. And then, I'm going to use every dollar of it to hunt you down and drill holes into your bones while you scream. Your move."

Pima County Sheriff said today that Nancy Guthrie's doorbell camera wasn't subscribed to the cloud service. That seems like an important detail because whoever did this took the camera. They likely knew this information before committing this crime.

If you care about our elections (and I hope you do) then please contact the ACLU and the Brennan Center, either by phone or in writing, and ask them to get a preliminary injunction to keep ICE away from polling centers on Election Day. They're planning to "guard" the polls.

I don't think Poland sees Donald Trump as the "greatest friend they've ever had in the White House."
Biden on the other hand, is likely close to the top. He brought two neighbors into NATO and gave a hell of a speech in Warsaw.

They should send it to Adam Savage. I'm betting he could restore it to museum perfection.
The crown of Empress Eugénie was one of nine invaluable royal ornaments snatched by burglars during the Louvre heist in October, but the thieves dropped it on the sidewalk before making their escape. The Louvre announced it will soon invite restorers to submit proposals for the crown’s repair.

Aside from that, she also has a dozen cameras around her property and I have access to the NVR remotely. That in itself is a lot of peace-of-mind. If you have an elderly loved one living independently, I highly recommend at a minimum a good outdoor surveillance system. Not just a "ring" doorbell.

In all the decades they're married, my dad never taught her how to own and use a firearm. He was the mighty protector (and he was). I think he had a different idea of how things would be after he was gone. She's a stubborn American woman, and that's fine. We just have to make sure she knows it's us.

My mother is elderly and determined to live self sufficiently. But I worry because my family is land wealthy and people assume that means cash wealthy. She's the widow of a sheriff. I've taught her to shoot and she has a firearm. We have to be careful about entering her home. Better this way tho.

I'll also point out that in the video the family posted, the guy sitting to her left isn't the BIL. That's her brother. His body language is saying "guarded"; but that means nothing. I'm sure if my mother was taken against her will, I'd feel vulnerable and be showing guarded posture as well.
