Nest Aware streams continuous
video to Nest's servers, and at the top resolution of 1600 x 1200, you could be facing 150GB to 600GB of uploads per month.

You can also ask Google Assistant to cast the doorbell's live video stream to a Chromecast equipped TV.
This even worked with my first generation Chromecast, although it took some buffering as all video tends to do on a first gen Chromecast.

When my contract with ADT expired, I contacted the company to
disconnect my service, which they did, but they continued taking the monthly payment from my checking account. When I contacted the company, they advised that they owed me $424. 23, and that they would reimburse. That was EIGHT years ago, and I haven’t
gotten a cent. I’ve contacted the company numerous times, and they give me different stories each time. They’ll tell me that they sent the money to Illinois unclaimed funds which they hadn’t, I checked.
