    I’m sorry. I was stoned when I posted. I get the value systems like this have to individuals and the general use cases.

    To me it is like "if a tree falls in the forest… "

    A lot of things go on around me I’d rather not know about, but having documented evidence would lead to me checking and then I have to act. Sometimes it just seems better to enjoy the ignorance I have

      It sounds like you would only use this as a security camera system, which is fine but obviously would limit your want/need for one if you feel the risk or need for one isn’t that high.

      having documented evidence would lead to me checking and then I have to act

      If that’s a concern then you could set it up in a way that you shouldn’t feel the need to “just check” the video feed. With a proper setup, you could receive notifications/texts/emails/etc. (or if you have a connected smart home, you could have lights turn a certain color, ring a doorbell, etc.) based on rules/parameters that you set.
