Not ALL cloud connected cameras. Be careful saying things like that, there are large differences in the trust levels between them. For instance, if you're using homekit, I believe Apple doesn't even have the keys to the e2ee encryption, regardless of your "icloud advanced security" mode.

I stand by what I said -- If you don't control the software stack, you have no control over whether or not your footage is available to the cloud provider (or law enforcement) no matter what the provider says. As I said in my post, you really don't know if they have a secret software toggle that disables e2e encryption for law enforcement demands.

*In the US. They had to disable that feature on the UK because the laws say they can't do that there.

Since writing this comment, I learned that the homekit secure video feature is e2ee by default regardless of that feature. You can't even turn it off. Apple doesn't have the keys.
