Do You Own A Ring Doorbell?
You May Be Entitled To A Settlement.
If you have a Ring doorbell, you may be receiving a piece of money sooner than later. Ring doorbell was just sued and now they are paying a multimillion-dollar settlement. The company made the huge mistake of allowing its employees, contractors, hackers, and federal agents access to their customer’s private information. This multimillion-dollar settlement is around $5.6 million. Ring really dropped the ball when they violated their privacy policy prompting the Federal Trade Commission to issue refunds to Ring's consumers.
The Ring doorbell camera is one of the most popular security systems in the United States. It is a smart home device that allows you to control your front door, back door, and any entrance remotely. The sales of this item top over 5 million dollars in 2022, and now they must pay all buyers piece of 5.6 million dollar settlement. The federal government and trade commission accused the Ring of breaching several privacy policies. The company's security violations allowed hackers to have jurisdiction over consumers cameras, accounts, and videos.
** Ultimately, Ring doorbell allegedly used footage from tracking certain customers and instructions without permission from them. Their carelessnes has appalled thousands, if not millions, of people. The company failed to adhere to regulations regarding their customer's personal video footage, and some that are involved in the lawsuit say it could happen again. Ring doorbell has agreed to pay out 5.6 million dollars to only 100,000 of its customers, so you do the math, that is not even $60 per person. The company stated that hackers also stole emails and passwords from certain companies to log into accounts. Thus far, the only thing they advise people to do is not use the exact same password for their accounts. So much for having the perfect doorbell.
