Nanit is horrible spyware. Do not buy their products.

If you have a router that lets you inspect data flowing out, you'll be astonished at what your little Nanit cam exfiltrates from your home network. Even if you don't pay for their subscription service, they still attempt to exfil all of the video footage caught on your camera to their servers. You can block it and it will still work, but you shouldn't have to do that in the first place if you don't pay for their cloud service.

Stay away if you value your privacy.
