My reolink runs off power over Ethernet. Here in the uk, there have been reports of Amazon drivers using wifi deauth-ing devices to kill the ring cameras when they are near your property. My parents recently experienced this.

Absolutely, I will be running PoE wherever possible, definitely for the doorbell. Not just because of Amazon drivers, I've read reports of burglars using WiFi jammers to make sure wireless cameras are useless during a break-in.

Well this is disturbing. I guess my weekend project is running ethernet to my front door.

My problem is that the area around my front door where the doorbell is installed is solid timber, so it's not just a simple ethernet drop. I'm honestly not even sure how the builders ran the existing wire to that location. Maybe my only option is to add a second backup camera in a location where an ethernet install is easier.

Cops will also go after your networking prior to busting down your door. Same applies regardless of a correct and valid warrant so do with that as you will.

I'm sure the cops who trashed Afroman's place would have loved that ability.

I realize that if the authorities target me specifically, there's not much I can do. Even though I am not in the States and do not expect my local police to be quite as... forceful.

However, I do not intend to make it easy to just grab my footage along with any other that can be found, without at least asking.

Yeah, this is more of a "If police screw up, they'll still make it a 'you' problem". IIRC the example I was thinking of was federal agents attempting to threaten an anti-ICE activist.

I'm not disputing this but I'm not sure if I understand what it is they're doing or why but am curious.
