Senators Demand Amazon Disclose Ring Privacy Policies

Five U.S. Senators are demanding that Amazon disclose how it s securing Ring home-security device footage. The demands, outlined in a Wednesday letter to Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos, come on the heels of several security vulnerabilities and privacy-related incidents. The five Democratic senators, which include Ron Wyden, Chris Van Hollen, Chris Coons, Gary Peters and Edward Markey, asked for a response to their questions by Jan. 6, 2020. Ring has acknowledged it’s partnering with more than 600 police departments across the country to allow them to request access to camera footage from camera owners.
