I would would say the "Jessica Rosenworcel, chair of the FCC." need to read the law and regulations they are enforcing, as well as their own published documentations.

Like with most government officials I care less what they say in Press Conferences, that has ZERO regulatory weight, or validation and is often hyperbolic or out right false

I care about the actual regulation, and rules as implemented and enforced.

Also even if they are expanding the devices, this would only apply to camera's with WiFi, Most commercial camera's are POE ethernet not wifi. Using WiFi security camera's is just asking for trouble since it is easy for criminals to take out wifi remotely
