Jamie Siminoff addresses Nancy Guthrie case after doorbell video recovery by FBI

Ring founder Jamie Siminoff said Tuesday that Ring does not store deleted doorbell footage without a subscription, as questions continue over how law enforcement recovered previously inaccessible video evidence in the disappearance of Nancy Guthrie.

Siminoff addressed the issue during an appearance on “The Bottom Line,” where hosts Dagen McDowell and Brian Brenberg asked about subscription storage, privacy concerns and the reported recovery of doorbell video by federal authorities.

“I do know with Ring specifically, if you delete a recording or if you don’t want a recording, you don’t have a subscription. We do not have it stored. I know that because I built the systems with my team,” Siminoff said.

Siminoff cautioned against speculating about the specifics of the Guthrie investigation and noted that different companies build their systems differently.

“I wouldn’t want to speculate,” he said. “Maybe they’re also, maybe we’re wrong, and that she did have some sort of subscription. You know, again, we’re getting a lot of, in the sort of in these cases, I’ve found that a lot of the things that we’re hearing are not always correct, and we find out later what’s actually happening.”

He reiterated that Ring does not retain deleted footage without an active subscription.

“If you delete a recording or if you don’t want a recording, you don’t have a subscription. We do not have it stored,” Siminoff said.

Google cooperated with the FBI to retrieve the video, a federal source confirmed to Fox News Digital.

Asked how investigators may have been able to recover doorbell footage in the Guthrie case, Siminoff again cautioned against speculation and stressed that companies build their systems differently.

“I mean, definitely hard to speculate on something like this because, you know, everybody builds their systems differently,” he said.

He again declined to draw conclusions about what occurred in this case.

“Again, I don’t want to speculate exactly like what happened or what subscription they had or whatever,” Siminoff said. “I think there’s a lot of probably information out there that we don’t know.”

Siminoff said the video evidence could be significant for investigators.

“It does seem like this video footage might be the best evidence so far,” he said, “and it shows why it is just so important to have these cameras.”

While avoiding details of the investigation, Siminoff said he was encouraged that authorities were able to recover video evidence.

“But again, I’m happy to see here that, you know, for whatever the reason was that they were able to with this camera, you know, recover this,” he said. “Because I do think this evidence is hopefully going to lead to the a solution here to this, this really just tragic case.”

During the interview, Siminoff also responded to backlash surrounding Ring’s Super Bowl “Search Party” advertisement, which focused on a feature designed to help locate lost pets.

“It actually like is a completely built on privacy,” he said. “So what we do is you we like we look for a dog, someone post a dog, we find it, we say, you know, Jamie, this dog that’s lost in your neighborhood looks like this dog in front of your camera. Do you want to contact your neighbor?”

He said users retain full control over whether any contact occurs.

“If you say no, your privacy is protected. You’re totally fine,” Siminoff said. “If you say yes, then like I think most people would want to, you help return the dog.”

He added that the feature has helped reunite pets with their owners.

Thailand’s Transit Trade Reaches Record High of 1.04 Trillion Baht in 2025

Thailand's Transit Trade Reaches Record High of 1.04 Trillion Baht in 2025

In 2025, Thailand’s border and transit trade reached 1.93 trillion baht, growing 6.7%. Transit trade surged 24.4%, driven by exports like durian and hard drives, despite slower border trade. Six trade fairs are planned for 2026.


Key Points

  • In 2025, border and transit trade reached 1.93 trillion baht, a 6.7% rise from the previous year, aiding the growth of the border economy. Trade with neighboring countries amounted to 894.19 billion baht, while transit trade soared by 24.4% to 1.04 trillion baht, with China as the top destination.
  • Major exports included fresh durian, hard disk drives, and rubber. However, border trade slowed in the latter half of the year due to issues at the Thai-Cambodian border and Myanmar’s import restrictions. Nonetheless, robust transit trade sustained overall growth.
  • Looking forward, the Department of Foreign Trade plans to host six border trade fairs across different provinces in fiscal year 2026. These events will enable entrepreneurs to showcase products, engage in business matching, and expand trade channels, further supporting border economic activity.

The Department of Foreign Trade reported that border and transit trade in 2025 totaled 1.93 trillion baht, a 6.7 percent increase from the previous year and supporting continued growth in the border economy.

The department reported that trade with four neighboring countries reached 894.19 billion baht, while transit trade to third countries totaled 1.04 trillion baht. Transit trade grew by 24.4 percent, the highest on record.

China remained Thailand’s largest transit trade destination at 608 billion baht, followed by Singapore and Vietnam. Major exports included fresh durian, hard disk drives, and rubber.

The department noted that border trade slowed in the second half of the year due to the Thai–Cambodian border situation and Myanmar’s import controls. However, strong transit trade remained a key driver, allowing overall trade to maintain solid growth.

Looking ahead, the Department of Foreign Trade will organize six border trade fairs in six provinces during fiscal year 2026. These events will provide entrepreneurs with free opportunities to showcase products, participate in business matching, and expand trade channels, supporting border economic activity and strengthening alternative markets.

Food Ministers Push for Mandatory Nutrition Labels on All Packaged Food Products

Health Star Rating System

Australia’s food ministers are expected to take a step closer to making nutrition labels, specifically the Health Star Rating System, mandatory for all packaged food products in the country.

Australia’s Food Ministers Push for Mandatory Nutrition Labels

According to a report by ABC News, the federal government, as well as five other states or territories, have said that they will be in favour of asking the food regulator to develop a formal proposal on how to mandate the Health Star Rating System.

A final decision will be made in around 12 months.

Federal Assistant Health Minister Rebecca White has claimed that the food industry did not meet its target of voluntarily applying the Health Star Rating labels to 70 per cent of packaged food and drink products. The target deadline was November 2025.

“What the data shows is we’ve only reached about 37 per cent take-up here in Australia,” said White. “That is well below what is expected.”

What Is the Health Star Rating System?

The Health Star Ratings are used to gauge the nutritional profile of packaged food. According to its official website, ratings range from 1/2 to five stars.

This means that the more stars you see on the packaging of the food item, the healthier it is.

Food manufacturers themselves are tasked with calculating the Health Star Rating for each product. The rating should then be displayed on the front packaging of food items.

The number of stars is usually based on the following:

  • Total energy (kilojoules)
  • Saturated fat, sodium (salt) and sugar content
  • Fibre, protein, fruit, vegetable, nut and legume content
