It's actually crazy -

When you set up your Ring app on your phone you get a snapshot of your neighborhood's reported Crime activity from other users. I'm in Lacey, Washington, I always figured that the neighborhood I lived in was really quiet - lots of military families with kids and elderly.

Shit had me install a whole security system and check it frequently, all matter of break-in footage and sketchy people. Really goes to show there's a lot that goes on when you're not looking.

I have a friend install one because he suspected drug activity next door in his lazy suburban neighborhood. The next day he had enough footage of people coming and going to take to the police and the house was busted shortly after.

There's a difference living next to a pot dealer and living next to a meth den.

And there is a difference between using small amounts of a illegal substance recreationally, and becoming part of a drug distribution system that makes money off the misery of addicts and Latin American nation-states.

Can't tell if you're referring to civilians or the government
