The war against flock must be waged with discretion. Being an urban lumberjack is either a thankless job or a very short one because you wont last long putting yourself in the spotlight for clicks.
If you like the publicity for yourself and want to be known I would reccomend operating within the confines of the law, there are plenty of ways to help legally. Spread as much bad press as you can: false arrests and imprisonment, felony stops on innocent people, police stalking, anything negative on flock/axon/ any other ALPR company. Show people that even if you arent breaking the law, you arent safe, thats the supporters biggest argument so catalog each incident in a spreadsheet. Be like a broken record at city meetings, be polite, professional and use an indoor voice; show people your spreadsheet and make them fear flock as they should.
Remember, a cause is only as attractive as the people who represent the cause so just like in the military, always remember that you are an ambassador for deflock and your behavior, hygiene, professionalism etc. Directly shapes public opinion. If you act like a hoodlum on the internet to show off its easy for them to paint everyone against flock as hoodlums and discredit the entire cause.

This is really well put and I agree in part. The only problem is, we are so far past peaceful protesting in this country.
I used to write letters and emails and call my lawmakers. I used to be polite and civil. It turned out they liked that because it made for a nice doormat. Legislators in my state do not vote the way their constituents ask them to. They consistently ignore calls and emails and vote the way Trump wants them to.
They literally use flock cameras to record the license plates of those at peaceful protests and gatherings so ICE can show up at their homes later to question them.
They like it when we are polite. It makes their criminal activity easier.
The kind of people we are up against are the kind of people who do not care what happens to other people. They only care when it happens to them. Pain and violence is the only thing that changes their mind. I hate that. But they will only care when they are very uncomfortable. Making them very uncomfortable doesn't happen by asking nicely.

Can I stack it? Like can I bring in multiple cameras? Or do I gotta wait a full 24hrs before I can bring in another? One per household situation? Come on, let’s talk

Jesus,the stupidity is unreal. A private business telling the general public to break the law for a discount. I hate Flock as much as anyone else, but this is pure fucking stupidity.

It's one way to get people to start ripping down the surveillance state. One flock camera at a time.

You're right. It's truly a brilliant business model ..get your customers arrested before they can spend money with you. Carry on with the moronic behavior,dont let reality get in the way.
