My cousin has bought this IP camera, which has both WiFi and Ethernet: https://www.takealot.com/ezviz-outp...ight-vision-wifi-security-camera/PLID90116484

I have been asked to assist with the installation and would appreciate some advice:

1. The manufacturer offers free cloud storage services for a limited period. What other options are there?
2. Can one remotely (i.e., off site) view the video streaming from this camera directly, or must it be accessed via a server?
3. What off-the-shelf tamper-proof measures are available? (domes, cages, etc.)
4. Can the camera be mounted protruding over the boundary of the property (so as to get a full view of the gate from outside), or does this violate some law or regulation?

Much thanks in advance.
