I still have a few wyze cams so this was a very troubling claim, I couldn't verify it, could you please provide some citation?

The only troubling thing I found is that the emergency response company they outsource police dispatch to (noonlight), but they claim they don't share any videos with them and only use their dispatch API for the home security system sensors, they explicitly say:

"Videos and/or the live streams from your Security Cameras are not shared with any Wyze employees or third parties (including Noonlight and the monitoring center)."

And in the same FAQs:

"Wyze does not share monitoring data with law enforcement or any third parties."
