The Typical picture of a Perp on Nextdoor-type Apps with Consumer Grade Cameras like Ring, Nest, Arlo, Canary, Wyze, etc.

From a cam outside a convenience store in Houston. Very easy to ID these guys, right?

Here are a couple of caps from videos posted on Nextdoor by the police asking for help in identifying this porch pirate.

She should be easy to ID as just how many people have no face?

Love the ghosting on this one.

The average intelligence of the Next Door Posters is alarming. To my surprise and horror, The level of immaturity of the comments and replies makes the Nextdoor App annoying to even visit.
But for you guys I'll suffer through and hopefully find something usefull. maybe a UFO caught on Ring.

My neighbor across the street just had a camera installed over his driveway that was included as part of his security system. I need to have him send me a screenshot at night. I will be curious to see how my house looks from his POV with all of my IR illuminators. :lmao:

Add a comparison of yours to his! And try to get it with motion as he is probably pleased with the static image he gets LOL

He wasn't in the market for it. He was having some door sensor issues and they asked him if he wanted one. He asked me where I would put it and I said for what it is, I would put it over the driveway so he can watch the kids playing out there during the day.

I'll see if I can find out what system he has and get some comparison shots.

On my morning walks I have been looking for cams on folk's houses. It is interesting to see how few there are here. See an occasional Nest/Ring/Arlo on soffits or at garage door. One was kind of high up over a window pointing to the street. Not sure what he is monitoring there. Not seen any Dahua or Hik cams at all.

Lots of doorbell cams though. Walking up the street I kept hearing "video is recording" every few seconds. As I came up to this one house there was a woman repotting a plant on the porch. Her movement kept triggering the doorbell cam. I had to laugh.

Guy down the street was walking by one day as I was sitting on the front porch and he asked me about 'all of the cams on my house'. We had a good conversation and he stated he had Arlos. I asked him about one of the door checker incidents if he got good video of the guys. He said no the cam was not working. It seems it is battery powered and you have to recharge it every few months. But he needs to use a ladder to get to it since the security company he paid to install it put it so high up on his house. So he never recharged it since the first time it was installed.

My neighborhood is the same way. Lots of doorbells, mostly Ring, with a small smattering of Nest/Arlo/Ring cameras. Most of them are just installed over driveways and likely would not be usable for much. A neighbor posted a video the other day of a car that needed to slow down. It was a Wyze cam on the inside of their front window, pointing out.

I would also be curious to see how many of the houses with doorbells actually pay to keep the footage in the cloud and how many only have real time/live view.

Yeah, I tried being on Nextdoor, but the rampant stupidity finally did me in, that and the hundreds of "I lost my Cat" posts.

Funny! I deleted my account because so many posts were about babysitters, people wanting to get rid of their six puppies, and "I lost my Dog" posts. LOL

Busy night. Here is another Ring wifi camera that caught a package thief.

Notice here the pixelated blur because the wifi cannot keep up with the "rated" resolution of the camera once there is motion in the image:

Now notice the camera is kinda blinded thanks to a motion activated flood light:

Here the perp looks right at the camera. Can you make out any features?

We finally get the camera in its rated resolution thanks to the perp stopping long enough to read the label to see if he can figure out what is in the box:
