Arlo, Apple, Wyze, and Anker, owner of Eufy, all confirmed to CNET<\/em><\/a> that they won\u2019t give authorities access to your smart home camera\u2019s footage unless they\u2019re shown a warrant or court order. If you\u2019re wondering why they\u2019re specifying that, it\u2019s because we\u2019ve now learned Google and Amazon are doing just the opposite: they allow police to get this data without<\/em> a warrant if police claim there\u2019s been an emergency.<\/p>\n

Earlier this month my colleague Sean Hollister wrote about<\/a> how Amazon, the company behind the smart doorbells and security systems, will indeed give police that warrantless access to customers\u2019 footage in those \u201cemergency\u201d situations. And as CNET<\/em> now points out, Google\u2019s privacy policy<\/a> has a similar carveout as Amazon\u2019s, meaning law enforcement can access data from its Nest products \u2014 or theoretically any other data you store with Google \u2014 without a warrant.<\/p>\n

Google and Amazon\u2019s information request policies for the US say that in most<\/em> cases, authorities will have to present a warrant, subpoena, or similar court order before they\u2019ll hand over data. This much is true for Apple<\/a>, Arlo<\/a>, Anker<\/a>, and Wyze<\/a> too \u2014 they\u2019d be breaking the law if they didn\u2019t. Unlike those companies, though, Google and Amazon will make exceptions if a law enforcement submits an emergency request for data.<\/p>\n

Earlier this month, Amazon disclosed that it had already fulfilled 11 such requests this year. Google\u2019s transparency report doesn\u2019t seem to include information specifically about emergency requests, and the company didn\u2019t immediately respond to The Verge<\/em>\u2019s request for comment on how many it\u2019s fulfilled. <\/p>\n
