Yes, I know the LAN IP for the camera, but my browser cannot log on to it. BTW I have just learned that Amazon-owned Blink is releasing a 2-year lithium battery powered security camera with free cloud storage. Looks to me like a game changer. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07MMZ2LTB?tag=cnet-vig-news-20

Thanks for the reply. I see your point. This Kuna replaced existing dawn to dusk ornamental lantern type fixture at my front door. I'd like to keep it. Clear picture, microphone, speaker, looks good, etc. I've been trying to find software that can intercept the video but so far no luck. Any suggestions for the software?

I recently bought a Kuna front door video surveillance system. The video is captured by a camera that I OWN. The video travels over a LAN that I OWN. From there it goes over the internet to Kuna cloud servers. Kuna wants to charge me a monthly or yearly fee to be able to download the video that I already (to my mind) own. There is no method of local storage for the video. The company was apparently started by two men who appear to be oriental (Chinese) and may have a different conception of property rights than I do as an American. Anybody else see the basis for a class action suit here? Is this a common practice when it shouldn't be? Please don't tell me "That's just the way it is".
