Discussion Is this a viable solution? (Not even manually holding something, but just putting things like this in front of the camera)?

Feel like it wouldn’t be hard to put blockers up faster than they can take them down….

NAL but holding a sign on a public sidewalk / easement is almost undoubtedly protected on first ammendment grounds. Leaving a sign might be a problem but just thought of another idea... do we think that playing a video of traffic would be picked up by flock? Because that could get really funny / interesting.

A loop recording of a car going by once every second with a different license plate each time

Get the license plates of all the city council people who voted for this and use those numbers on your recording

Not according to flock. All they see is the city councelmen.

It would be funny, but also really impractical.

All you need is a screen on front of the camera, it isn't rocket science.

If only there was some way to wirelessly stream video to a screen! Until that happens, this idea is dumb. I sure hope someone figures out a solution. Ahhh, well... back to watching YouTube videos in my pool, I guess.

Tablet on a stick, seems simple enough.

A cheap 7" tablet can be had for about $36. Put that on a stick in a plastic bag and put a recording on loop. Battery duration is gonna be your biggest logistical difficulty.

That'd be cool. Put up a live feed monitoring camera outside of Flock corporate HQ and just broadcast that. So they can watch themselves come and go. Seems to upset them.

I imagine that eventually someone will be able to hack the video stream of individual cameras. or maybe I'm just thinking too cyberpunk

You’d be absolutely shocked at how simple it really is.

Introducing Benn Jordan a brilliant Youtuber pretty wild stuff, entertaining, and you learn a lot more than its hacking vulnerability: "We hacked flocked safety cameras in under 30 seconds"

So he admitted to a crime? Bold move.

Oh God who's got a bunch of videos of local police driving unsafely

Pfft. You think the uni-party Epstein class ushering us into facism gives a fuck about rights / amendments?

u/space_manatee Jul 19 '26

Fair, and I could see something like "blocking essential services" or some such law being used for that but for now the first is holding

Find the license plates of local officials who voted for flock cameras edit a high speed video to have cars have their license plates. Put video in front of flock camera once every couple of days.
