Amazon Cloud Cam Security Camera
"Hey Alexa, show me the guy breaking into my house." According to the reviews on this HD cloud-based video camera from Amazon, that's exactly what happens when you buy this security camera. It comes with 24/7 video, motion detection, night vision, alerts to your phone, and two-way audio so you can yell at that guy breaking into your house if you want. The cloud-based video storage is only free for 24 hours. If you want to see video after that, you'll need to pony up for a cloud cam subscription that runs $6.99 for the low end and $19.99 for the high end.
What could happen if something goes wrong?
It could record you doing a bunch of weird things around your house, save them to the cloud, and accidently share them around the world.
