    They just tried to assassinate Trump

    Not sure if it's real or fake, but certainly fits the video timeline and actions of the sniper on the roof. Not sure if he is SS or contracted.

    USPS - Don’t mind me just passing through!

    Maybe because it is too close to a cross street intersection, and trucks with trailers making a right turn clip the mailbox if placed along the road. Maybe homeowners have been hit or splashed by passing cars when retrieving their mail standing on the road. Maybe in the winter, the snow...

    Rio Wifi Router "bulletproof security?"

    Another sham KS company. I couldn’t find anything in the FCC database, so it’s likely rebranded kit run by a couple of business/marketing types with no engineering background. Any site making those claims and includes seals of US government agencies should be avoided.

    How do I setup my VPN so I am not just pointing it to my house from my laptop (remote)? Help me make this secure (OpenVPN to view my QNAP from laptop)

    How do I setup my VPN so I am not just pointing it to my house from my laptop (remote)? Help me make this secure (OpenVPN to view my QNAP from laptop)

    Garage Door opening or closing to trigger alert

    Tilt sensors are battery operated and rely on wireless communication. Not to mention, it may not detect the garage door partially open (jammed or manually released from track) A magnetic door position sensor wired to an input zone on a home security panel is more reliable...

    Doorbell camera with phone app and no subscription?
