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.

I agree with the sentiment, but in this case you just licensed software, you don't own the bits, the service, the components, or the video. Those files were never in your desk drawer, they've always been in amazon's desk drawer. While this is a step in the right direction, I would look to an RTSP doorbell if you're concerned.

The problem is that the market success of products from Ring and similar companies have obliterated the market for DIY systems, so the few RTSP doorbells that exist aren't very good.
