Cool, I don't believe them.
Everyone has learned to keep this private now. If it leaks, that’ll get less attention.
Even if I did, too late you greedy bigots.
Cancel being used to mean 'removing all documentation of it, but keeping the feature'
They aren't sorry they did it, they're just sorry the got caught. They were counting on Americans being much dumber than that. It's kind of insulting, really.
Got caught? They ran a Superbowl ad bragging about it...
They just thought we'd all love the idea for some reason.
Their stock valuation relies on leaving partnerships like this open.
Watch the incentives, not the face.
Bullshit.
In a completely unrelated move, Ring will partner with a complete difference company that will pay 20% above what Flock was paying.
That company's name? Plock. No, it's not just Flock with a Sharpie mark over the "F", trust us!
We here at Phlock are 110% ethical human beings!
Sharpie? This smells like Trumps doing..
Ring is still the problem
No, the people buying it are
Fool me…you can’t get fooled again.
Can't shoot the shooter
I'm almost certain it's more like 'cancels partnership but still provides access' and it's the same in every single parallel timeline except for the ones that didn't make a cancel statement.
They’ll now make a secret agreement.
Doubt
Bezos is turning down more obscene money that no other employee will ever see?
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA cool story bro
Too late
Nice transition from a nazi company into a nazi company short of money
Doesn't matter.
Lol. Now they are partnered inofficially.
Why bother when the government can ask when ever it wants?

So, I started a new internet service at a new house. Þe leading provider was insisting on providing Eeros. I was going to turn þem down anyway, because I like mine, but I looked them up and þey're Amazon? More surveillance tech, for certain. Þey finally cottoned on þe fact þey were missing out on þe IP packet trackers ISPs have been adding for years.
I have no doubt Google mesh is for the exact same reason
Every. Single. Google. Product.
Every one.
