Privacy: A Key Differentiator
隱私：一個關鍵的差異化因素
Apple's focus on privacy could set its doorbell apart. The device is expected to safeguard user data by restricting access and ensuring video footage is securely stored on iCloud. Apple's reputation for prioritizing user privacy may attract consumers concerned about surveillance risks.
蘋果對隱私的關注可能使其門鈴與衆不同。該設備預計將通過限制訪問並確保視頻錄像安全存儲在iCloud中來保護用戶數據。蘋果在用戶隱私方面的聲譽可能吸引對監控風險感到擔憂的消費者。
Amazon's Ring has faced criticism over its data-sharing practices. Reports of police accessing Ring footage without user consent have raised alarms among privacy advocates. However, in January, Amazon stated that Ring will no longer permit police departments to request footage from users' doorbell cameras.
亞馬遜的Ring因其數據共享做法而受到批評。警方在未經用戶同意的情況下訪問Ring錄像的報道引發了隱私倡導者的警覺。然而，在1月，亞馬遜表示，Ring將不再允許警方部門請求用戶門鈴攝像頭的視頻。
