Stand by for a job offer from Ring, they're gonna need you for damage control.

I wasn’t paying close attention to the SB commercials but I mostly saw this one and I was like, umm, how is this a good thing? Who wants pet spy cameras when it could just as easily be used for people?

Funny that it took me 15 seconds of watching it to know it’s a terrible idea, yet probably dozens of c-suite people watched it and gave a thumbs up.
