Or give it to an elderly family member and sue Amazon for negligence if something happens and their surveillance device doesn't summon an ambulance?

I guarantee it's buried in their TOS that you can't sue them for inability to deal with emergency situations. Relatedly, do you remember all the smartphone pop-up warnings about lack of emergency-line (e.g. 911) access when using a wifi connection?
