Disable Amazon Sidewalk for Now

avatar

Amazon is releasing their Sidewalk network feature that opens users home network to connect with neighbors that also have Amazon products like the Echo devices and Ring security cameras. Amazon is turning Sidewalk ON by DEFAULT! That is concerning. Such a network could enable a host of new capabilities but might also introduce new cyber risks to participants.

This is why I got a Eufy that is completely stand alone and doesn't phone home to anyone. Although I plan to switch to Ubiquiti to pair with my other Ubiquiti hardware and it looks a little nicer.
