And even then, big question mark, as most Chinese produced camera modules have black box firmware. If it’s on the Internet it’s not yours.

My cameras have local network access only. Most people who are tech savvy enough to set up their own storage are also able to block Internet access for security cameras.
But another big concern for externally mounted cameras with microsd cards is the confiscation of those cards. They are are very easy to remove, often without tools.

Which cameras do you use?

TP-Link (which are cheap but so unreliable I had to add smart switches to reset them when they stop working), Foscam and Dahua. Duhua is by far the best. All of them record to a local server running Home Assistant and Frigate.
