Ask HN: Any home security cameras that don’t force you to use their spyware app? I want to setup a home camera system (2-3 units) so I can watch what’s happening with my two cats when I’m out of the apartment for a longer period. There’s a lot out of the box solutions on Amazon like [this Eufy camera](https://www.amazon.de/Security-surveillance-detection-assistant-required-White/dp/B086LBCQJL) but it forces you to use their proprietary software with an account which gives me the creeps. Any other more privacy friendly solution out there? I have a home server which I access using a VPN. |
