Amazon’s Ring Camera has added a Search Party feature critics say enables Amazon to build a pre-crime database the state, or the corporation, could use to quickly tamp down dissent. An email from Ring Founder Jamie Simonoff is giving credence to those concerns.
He wrote, “I believe that the foundation we created with Search Party, first for finding dogs, will end up becoming one of the most important pieces of tech and innovation to truly unlock the impact of our mission. You can now see a future where we are able to zero out crime in neighborhoods. So many things to do to get there, but for the first time ever, we have the chance to fully complete what we started.”

A leaked email from Ring founder Jamie Siminoff is fueling explosive new concerns that the company’s controversial AI-powered “Search Party” feature was never just about finding lost pets.
Instead, critics say it points to something far bigger and far more invasive.
Ring, the Amazon-owned company behind millions of video doorbells across America, debuted Search Party in a high-dollar Super Bowl ad, marketing the tool as a wholesome way to help reunite families with missing pets.
But privacy advocates across the political spectrum immediately raised red flags.
