A leaked email has revealed the dystopian vision for a search feature meant for missing dogs from one of the nation’s leading home security companies.
The founder and CEO of Amazon-owned Ring, Jamie Siminoff, told staff in an email obtained by 404 Media that ‘Search Party,’ a feature that links Ring cameras and harnesses AI technology to locate missing dogs in a neighborhood, had potential beyond its primary function.
Siminoff’s email, sent in early October last year, said Search Party was introduced “first for finding dogs,” but that it could be used to “zero out crime in neighborhoods.”
