Complaints I've seen include:

Forcing users to use a cloud account and an app for setup, and enabling telemetry without disclosing it to users, although once they were called out on it by folks noticing a bunch of traffic to their servers they eventually confirmed it was happening and added an opt-out option (see https://www.theregister.com/2019/11/07/ubiquiti_networks_pho...), also there was something about NVR and not being allowed to self host it, or use old hardware... I never bothered to really look into that one, but it seemed to come up a lot.
