The problem according to GroenLinks is that these doorbell cameras are filming public space instead of private terrain. In Amsterdam&#8217;s smaller streets it is possible to peek into each others homes. A study by Amsterdam Municipality (no source is given in the article) would suggest that a majority of inhabitants have uncomfortable feelings about so many smart doorbells in public. A\u00a0spokesperson is quoted:\u00a0&#8220;While the smart doorbell can contribute to a greater sense of safety for property owners, it can have the adverse consequence for other groups of being filmed unwittingly all the time.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Earlier I reblogged another <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bijt.org\/wordpress\/2022\/06\/24\/how-front-door-cameras-are-jeopardizing-the-right-to-not-be-tracked\/\">news article<\/a> about smart doorbells.<\/p>\n<p>Link to original article in Dutch &gt;&gt;<\/p>\n<div class=\"syndication-links\"><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dutch local news channel for Amsterdam AT5 reports that GroenLinks, a Dutch leftwing green party, is worried about the rampant use of smart doorbells like [&hellip;] <span class=\"read-more-link\"><a class=\"read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bijt.org\/wordpress\/2024\/01\/24\/dutch-political-party-worried-about-rise-of-smart-doorbells\/\">Read More<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":2096,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"mf2_syndication":[],"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2},"_share_on_mastodon":"1"},"categories":[16],"tags":[361,41,360],"class_list":["post-2095","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news","tag-policing","tag-public-space","tag-smart-doorbell"],"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/sciences.social\/@mdelange\/111810688424905032","error":""},"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/www.bijt.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/GroenLinks-maakt-zich-zorgen-over-groeiend-aantal-slimme-deurbellen-in-de-stad-AT5.png","jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/peQgW-xN","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bijt.org\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2095","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bijt.org\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bijt.org\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bijt.org\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bijt.org\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2095"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.bijt.org\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2095\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2097,"href":"https:\/\/www.bijt.org\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2095\/revisions\/2097"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bijt.org\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2096"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bijt.org\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2095"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bijt.org\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2095"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bijt.org\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2095"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
