I'm completely ok with the police asking me for video from my doorbell. I'm not ok with the police using the third party doctrine and asking the hosting service for my video without asking me. That video is every bit my property as the files in my desk drawer and should be subject to the same protections.

Pretty sure if you read the fine print that video is not your property, but even if it was, how can you enforce that if it’s not on your own servers?

He's not asking about how to enforce it, I don't think.

He's wishing that things like your e-mail, videos in the cloud, etc, required a warrant for the police to search, instead of just a subpoena to a third party.

The article falsely implies that a warrant is required, but in practice police can just subpoena the information.

They don’t even have to subpoena they can just ask.
