Tell Amazon to Fix this Big Security Flaw in Ring Doorbells

Amazon is still ignoring a major security issue with its Ring Doorbell.

Research commissioned by Mozilla exposed that attackers can easily take Ring devices, including their security cameras, offline. We told Amazon, and they didn't fix it. We then told the media, and Amazon still didn't fix it.

Now we're organising people to force Amazon to act.

A quotation by Richardson, James

Think of all the smart people who are made stupid by flaws of character. The finest watch isn’t fine long when used as a hammer.

James Richardson (b. 1950) American poet

“Vectors: 56 Aphorisms and Ten-second Essays,” Michigan Quarterly Review, #19 (Spring 1999)

If you must use Zoom, the browser version is less vulnerable

If you want to play it safe for now, then use the Zoom browser interface instead of the Zoom desktop client. (Zoom will nudge you to install the desktop app when joining a meeting online, but you can ignore that.)
