This is by far the most important topic concerning this product and still not resolved by simply saying that the video streams are only available to the user. The app looks really neat, but I am going to delete it immediately after I try it out (I already paid for it) until I am able to download the source code and see exactly what information is sent to your servers and compile the product that I use myself.
Companies lie about these things all the time. For instance, passwords to your email, banks accounts, brokerage firms, or online storage services are only known by you right? WRONG. If you break the law you will discover that all of your emails (even services like hushmail. which claim to encrypt everything on their server unless issued a subpoena), credit cards, bank transactions were actually visible to employees of the company all along. The passwords you choose for these services can also be recovered effortlessly. Even bank safe deposit boxes with "two keys" are pointless because the bank actually has copies of both keys. I found all this out because someone made false claims about me and even though no subpoena was ever issued, ALL of the above became public. You don´t even want to know what cell phones can do. Even pay service vpns turned out to be worthless because the vpn company is just as likely as your isp to over every byte that crosses their servers when told the right things.
