Finally, Hikvision is gone, smashed into oblivion.
I cannot express in words the relief when we finally had all of the Hikvision devices removed from service at our property. Add to that the pleasure I had in taking every item, including the NVR, placing each on a big rock and smashing them with our heavy mall. Watching each item smash into many un-usable little pieces has finally brought to an end their involvement in our security. Good riddance.
