MODERATORS
He does show that wireless cameras WiFi activity can be used to track people inside their home. But that seems like a targeted attack, not necessarily something that would be used for mass surveillance. But locally hosting the footage removes you from almost all the issues in general and what's brought up in this video. Just ideally you'd run the cameras over PoE.
