Privacytools.io: ✨ Feature Suggestion | Security camera NVR/CCTV software

We should have a section recommending some open source camera software.

One that comes to mind is ZoneMinder, Motion, Shinobi, Kerberos.io etc.

would have some things we should consider.

I think the only requirement should be that it is open source and can be self-hosted.

For the hardware section we could have a recommendation about Ubiquti's UniFi cameras. These can often be used with open source hosting solutions in addition to Ubiquti's proprietary software (which can be self hosted too).

Cameras are a bit like phones and firmware is going to likely be closed source due to patent licensing.

maybe we can make an IOT subsection for things like this?
