Not allowed to post information about suspicious activity
neighbors

About a month ago, my neighbor posted a video of someone taking a package from her porch. She shared information about it to the police And me including the vehicle make and model. You could not see clearly where the Thief had the package in her hand when she walked away but could see her touching the packages. However I had walked my dog and saw two packages on the porch. Within a short period of time, the video was recorded and one of the packages was gone. There were no that no other videos recorded in that time. When she posted it, several people defended the thief as if the package was not taken. I see that all the time where people post suspicious activities and a bunch of people basically tell them they’re paranoid and call them liars. I tried to Post an activity where the same make and model vehicle was parked outside my house at 9:45 pm. Amazon had just delivered and the car drove off quickly when i got my package off the porch. Once again, they were parked on the wrong side of the street. When I first saw them through my bedroom window they were looking directly at my porch. But I am not allowed to post this. The reason is that neighbors are complaining about false crime. Wouldn’t you rather be notified of a potential crime? I feel that the community is more interested in protecting criminals then the ring subscribers. As a result we are getting a different device. We are disgusted by Ring as well as people in general. This is kind of thing that makes people angry and at odds with each other. Ring has been taken over by trolls. When people report strangers being in their backyard at 2 AM, people even make excuses for them.
