Ring kills Flock partnership amid surveillance scrutiny

Move comes against backdrop of disasterclass Super Bowl ad

Ring has cut ties with Flock, citing resource constraints, mere months after the pair announced a partnership.

The pair spoke of their intention to work together on Ring’s Community Requests feature back in October, but Ring said this week the integration “would require significantly more time and resources than anticipated.”

The Amazon-owned smart home company made no mention of it in the announcement, but the cancellation comes at a tricky time following backlash over its recent Super Bowl ad.
