guy who came to clean my car has a friend overseas who runs a business around a glitch that lets you bypass Ring's monthly payments while still using the platform. charges a one-off fee and you get a lifetime account without paying. I lol'd hard. couldn't happen to a nicer company.
@gsuberland you are forgetting that you are paying with your data that they "anonymously" resell to data brokers.
The subscription fee is just another bonus for them.
