Preferably something that is WiFi and would work with Frigate?

"security theater" my guy it's not x-ray scanning them, it's so the Jehovah's Witnesses don't try and convert me, so when I am taking a shit I can see it's just the delivery guy and not someone I need to run out with my pants around my ankles, it's so I can communicate with the neighbors that lock themselves out again asking when I'll be back from errands.
