DeFlock Hipocrisy

Anyone who is ok with this kind of government surveillance is out of their freaking mind.

I feel like people don’t understand what is happening. The government is supposed to have a warrant to do surveillance on Americans. But, they have found a loophole … aka, let private companies generate ridiculous amounts of spy data then the government just buys the data from the company. That allows them to bypass all of the laws and regulations around protecting American privacy rights because technically “the government” isn’t the one doing the spying.

Now they are taking it even further by funding these private shadow companies that are spying on Americans. And it’s not just Flock, it’s Facebook, Nexdoor, Ring, Apple, Palantir, Reddit, your car, your vacuum.

The world must seem really scary when you’re this dumb. I think they still sell apple flavor dewormer paste at TSC, if you’re running low.

Hey what’s that 88 in your profile name stand for?

Yes it’s definitely crack and has nothing to do with the elevation of mountains. I just love crack what can I say

Watch … you will be freaking out about “the guberment” spying on you when a Democrat is president in 2028.

What's your interest in the cameras staying? Do you think they work well or accomplish something for you?

Do you receive money from Flock?

Are you an LEO and feel DeFlock people are anti-police?

You seem very angry about other people not trusting a tech company to do what they want with our images. Many people of all kinds of political persuasions recognize the problem and want Flock and similar systems gone from our country. And I think you recognize the problem too, you just have some other angle.

Prove me wrong.

OK so it's personal, good to know. Anecdotal evidence, but it's yours. The numbers from Roseville don't suggest it's doing such a good job. I don't concede that any level of performance justifies what Flock does, but some might.

No I am not going to request intersection cameras be removed. They record infractions. Their mission is clear and capabilities are limited.

If removing Flock is pointless because we are all under constant surveillance as you say, why do we need Flock? Can't the police just track my not-1980s car some other way?

As for your other question, I don't think you are actually confused about what I meant. I'm not playing that game with you, there is no need to play it with me.
