Amazon and Ring are facing a class-action lawsuit for allegedly not doing enough to secure their security surveillance systems against hacks.
Alabama resident John Orange, who filed the lawsuit, has claimed that a stranger compromised his Ring outdoor camera and spooked his kids, highlighting the inability of the company to prevent cyber attacks, Engadget notes.
Meanwhile, Ring responded to Orange's claims as a result of a possible breach at a non-ring service where someone reused info to sign into Ring accounts. It remains to be seen if the lawsuit achieves class-action status and the companies are required to compensate victims.
