Doorbell cameras are racist

Hot Air: Now doorbell cams are destroying America or something
Damn. Just, damn.

“Amazon is profiting off of fear,” said Chris Gilliard, an English professor at Michigan’s Macomb Community College and a prominent critic of Ring and other technology that he says can reinforce race barriers. Part of the strategy seems to be selling the cameras “where the fear of crime is more real than the actual existence of crime.”
Damn. Just, damn.

Has this dipshit watched all the videos of people stealing packages? Opening gates? Trespassing into yards? Testing car door locks?

Hopefully the next time he leaves his house to go to work or out somewhere his house gets broken into and ransacked and the police tell him that without any photo evidence they probably won't be able to catch those responsible.

Did you not see that he is a “prominent critic of Ring”?
PROMINENT.
I mean, you don’t reach that level of influence without these days without having real substance and meaning in your work.

His primary target is the way Amazon and Co. set up algorithms to enhance profit with home delivery services which (obviously) shies away from poor neighborhoods as they present crime issues and the fact they don't have the same purchasing power.
Now, this would mean they are racist to try and make more money......but, this is all horseshite because while it may very well exclude some, its done based on mathematics. Numbers don't lie....and they can't see color.
The Ring tech just happens to be in the mix.
Ignore this guy, and he'll go back under his CC rock.

No doubt that ‘fear’ is part of the marketing
Don’t these gubers understand that in their rush to point out racism that doesn’t exist, that they reveal a certain racism of their own?

If the media has 100 stories to choose from...100% of the time they will choose an article about a negative racial subject. No matter how far the article reaches...

We all have a responsibility to allow ourselves to be victimized so that Progressives don’t get hysterical that we discern the facts and make our own decisions.

are these things even for crime, really?

Crime such as package theft has almost become commonplace and expected. Punishment of theft is the exception rather than the rule. This needs to change.
