The flip side of this is that I had a Ring doorbell in a home I lived in. Moved out and split up with my ex. Years later I installed a new Ring doorbell and I got a message from her shortly after installing it saying she was getting notifications again from my new Ring camera.

Kind of scary now to wonder if there's any loose accounts somewhere that's leaking sensitive information due to never requiring reauth.

I think the worse offender is iMessage. It's very easy to not understand that your SMS messages are -sometimes- going over icloud and can be seen on old apple devices you might have given up. I tried to unregister my phone number from iMessage about 5 times and it just doesn't work for me.
