The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) began distributing over $5 million in refunds to Amazon Ring customers on Tuesday, enforcing a settlement with the tech giant over claims that Ring failed to protect consumer privacy. The FTC claimed in a 2023 complaint that Ring allowed employees and contractors improper access to records from the company’s security cameras, potentially putting customer’s privacy at risk. Ring allegedly used such footage to train algorithms without consent, among other purposes. The agency called the lapses “egregious violations of users’ privacy.” Amazon, which owns Ring, settled the claims last year and agreed to pay $5.6 million in refunds to Ring customers.
