  It’s one of the easier things to DIY though, much easier than setting up a printer or installing a TV

  I don’t think that’s true at all, and also like I said before if you rent it’s literally not an option unless you can do it without drilling holes.

  Also, it’s about the same price if not cheaper, I got 1tb harddrive, 4 cameras, cables and and OS for under $200

  Well no, a Wyze cam is like $25. So that’s not “The same price if not cheaper”, it’s 8X more expensive.

    $25 + subscription and/or SD card

      You don’t need either, actually.

    I’m not familiar with Wyze but Ring and Nest doorbells go for $50-$200 per camera plus a month subscription if they want to keep the data, so still cheaper

    And they do have magnets to allow for non drilling options if that’s a requirement

    My argument is not go the easy, convenient route. Fast food is nice in a pinch, but eating it every day leads to bad outcomes. And I’m not saying the consumer is 100% to blame, but they aren’t innocent bystanders, especially if they are spending money to protect valuables, why not learn which tools are available and when to use what
