Wyze has End to End encryption for their cloud stuff, or you can save it all on an SD card instead. Wyzecams are also really cheap $20 but they dont have a doorbell, so for now I'm keeping Ring (came with my house) till I see a good alternative.

I can always just revert to using an SD card instead of sending my data over to them on the other hand. I am okay with this so far though, they delete videos after 15 days anyway.
I'm also waiting for the outdoor / weather resistant Wyze cams that are set to come out this year, so I can put them facing the front door from the front part of my porch. I hope to have it trigger a Wyze lightbulb, though I'm not sure if they're that smart or if they need the sensor instead.
Edit:
Matter of fact, I have a window next to the Ring where I have a Wyze cam looking outside, but the IR doesn't work through window, so I'm just waiting for the outside Wyze cams to be a thing. Once I get those I might repurpose some of the regular wyze cams to do time lapse videos of the weather from upstairs. Florida has interesting weather.
That's a good idea, I had not thought about that, adding an IR bulb outside. I'm thinking of getting Wyze bulbs for outside though, I'm sick of coming home to complete darkness, just bought the home and there's no smart lights outside yet.
I do need to worry about weather mainly because I do live in Florida, and hurricanes do come through now and then. I will be sure to mount it securely though.
