As part of a secret agreement, Amazon requires that police “encourage adoption” of its Ring doorbell surveillance cameras.
Dozens of police departments around the country have partnered with Ring, but until now, the exact terms of these partnerships have remained unknown.

Police are contractually required to “Engage the Lakeland community with outreach efforts on the platform to encourage adoption of the platform/app.”
