I have wired cameras for this reason and these are not connected to the wireless system. I figure the police will probably not be able to get to the house in time to actually catch the bad guys, but I will have video to catch them after the fact.
On a side note, I find the villages to be very safe, but I do not believe in monitored security systems.
This is a very informative post. Many do not care that the ‘tables have been turned’ as it relates to monitoring. Sales weasels will tell you what you want to hear but the reality is big brother is watching them...and you. Buyer beware
