The company, which has already established relationships with some 1,800 police departments, has signed agreements with at least 350 fire departments in just a year. The company touts its network of home security cameras as a useful tool in arson investigations, since it allows agencies to request footage directly from civilians without a warrant, according to documents obtained via public records requests from 11 fire departments that have partnered with Ring. A Ring spokesperson told BuzzFeed News that fire departments have issued 214 requests for footage in the past year.
