Ring Video Leak Lawsuit Targets Airbnb Hosts
10 Nov
Summary
- Lawsuit alleges hosts recorded and shared Ring video in 2023.
- Plaintiff claims hosts violated privacy rights by sharing footage.
- Suit seeks damages, attorneys' fees, and an injunction.
In 2023, Jordon Hudson stayed at a Massachusetts Airbnb owned by Elise McDevitt and Craig Nolan. During her stay, footage from a Ring doorbell camera captured a shirtless Bill Belichick outside the property.
Hudson alleges that McDevitt recorded and subsequently shared this video, which she claims was a violation of her privacy rights. The lawsuit states that McDevitt initially downplayed the leak, claiming the video would be deleted, but it later appeared online.
According to the lawsuit, filed in May 2025, McDevitt later admitted to sharing the video with several individuals back in 2023. Following the alleged leak, Hudson reported the incident to Airbnb, which removed the property for privacy violations. Hudson is now seeking damages and an order to prevent further dissemination of personal information.
