My wife thinks I’m insane but, what experience do you have with baby monitors and what steps did you take with commercial products to make sure they weren’t vulnerable like most IoT garbage out there?

interesting idea of VLAN’ing everything to a black hole. I was mulling a Eufy baby monitor. I feel like I remember Eufy being a no-no brand but, I’m willing to hear contrary positions.
It worked rather well since the majority of the time it was used was while we were on the same network, or could access it. Interestingly enough, I went out to my garage and still have that camera . Lmk if you’d like it. I don’t have any use for it now days. Not sure if it is still supported in their app or if their app still supports the no Internet aspect. The model is IP2M-841W.
Eufy recently had some issues exposed where they were not actually doing end-to-end encryption in all cases even though they said they were. We have used the Eufy E110 with both of our kids and like them. They don’t connect to a network, so the security risk is very low in my opinion. We have had issues with the monitor kick stand and flip out antennas breaking if you drop them or aren’t careful, but that is user error.
Ah! That was it. I’m not too worried since I didn’t plan on connecting it to my wifi.
