I used to have a Ring and became concerned about privacy once Amazon took over. Worse, all it used to capture was delivery people's backs - by the time it would see motion the action was almost over. That's when it captured anything at all - it used to miss a lot.

Reolink doesn't require any Internet access - even for initial setup. People detection works great with Frigate and you can tell it to start recording before motion is detected so you don't miss anything.

Full disclosure, it does take some fiddling to get it working reliably. I still don't have 2 way audio working.
