Amazon’s marketing strategy with Ring seems to be:

  1. Make you worry about something you weren’t worried about yesterday.
  2. Sell you a product to try and counteract that worry they created for you.

  4. Give lip service to privacy concerns.
  5. Create a large volume of data to sell you more things.
