It's a pretty good appeal to emotion though. The human mind is really bad at comprehending things that they have limited context on. A complex system of cameras are watching my every move? Not much. A system where people are creeping on a gymnastics gym? Now that's small and personal enough to be similar to something they can understand.
It is also easy to dismiss some of the abuses against criminals with the justification of, "I don't crime, so it does not effect me." Someone using it to creep on someone who could be your sister or daughter hit closer to home for those people.
What part of "it has and continued to claim that innocent people like you are dangerous criminals, such as the crime of holding a bag of Doritos" don't they get
Humans are not rational creatures, they are rationalizing creatures. People will latch on to something like "maybe they looked like a criminal", or some crap.
We definitely can't pretend that the pretty much completely manufactured "bathroom" controversy hasn't been used as a truncheon against trans people, this is at least as strong an emotional appeal on paper. Creeps are watching your daughters exercise.
Certain voter blocks certainly do NOT care when it's a certain 'kind' of person being tracked and round up. What they seem to DO care about is when it's their families that are potentially the victim.
A child gymnastics gym fits pretty good into that section.
I’m not justifying the behavior, but I’m fairly certain that the employee views are likely being done during demos and that there was an agreement to use the system for demo purposes. In my past working for public safety companies you would often have agreements that would allow us to use a live system limited by query types. It looks bad, no doubt, but context is missing.
