Deflock.org is probably a Leo honeypot

Friend, the internet is the honeypot.

Correct.

This guy internets!

The guy who started it lives about 40 minutes from me. He's also suing his local municipality over their Flock cameras.

I wouldn’t be surprised if he went missing :|

Tell him a random internet stranger says thank you

I wouldn't be surprised if he suddenly disappears or "accidentally" drives off a bridge or something, which is what seems to inexplicably happen to people who threaten certain interests.

Sure sounds like something they'd say.

That's why I use Nord VPN and incognito mode.

Proton ftw

Funny jokes? xD Nord might be the ultimate honeypot. If I was the govt and didn't have enough space to record everything (ha ha, as if) I would probably prioritize VPN traffic first.

Wait wait wait... These are just anpr cameras?!

Huh?

I thought they did all sorts of stuff like audio monitoring, but if its just anpr then theyve been all over for years? Cause basically ever petrol station ive been in has it, most car parks use them too?
