    You are correct. But to be totally honest, Wyze offered an affordable cost and a low barrier to entry. It’s a tradeoff that worked out for me, but I get that it’s not the same math for everyone else.

      There are onvif cameras (IP camera standard that lets it work with any software) that are as cheap as Wyze. Plus many have microsd so they can work without any network.

        Again you’re completely right. I’m just saying that when it comes down to it, 99% of folks are not going to host their own system. And in my personal, specific case, I judged the rewards to heavily outweigh the risks, which ended up being correct. YMMV.
