Use https://github.com/gtxaspec/wz_mini_hacks for an easy way to control your Wyze cams locally.

Personally I use the streams in homebridge to get them into HomeKit and blacklist the cameras from the internet. You could do the same thing with home assistant even.

For a little bit of effort you can make your cameras not use wzye cloud systems and protect your privacy.
