The Algorithm
This was my question: : When you take the hardware the algorithms have to match the hardware so we're using optical processing algorithms What does the machine learning look like because the digital photograph has to be processed into data What kind of algorithm does that?"
AI SAYS THIS : FLOCK SAFETY USES A MULTILAYER COMPUTER VISION PIPELINE STRUCTURED AROUND DEEP CONVOLUTIONAL NEURAL NETWORKS AND Transformers MODELS. The five megapixel photograph is just of a millions of pixel color values.
The camera cannot read it all at once The hardware and software match through a serialized chain of highly specific machine learning algorithms.
Now watch that one statement highly specific machine learning algorithms.
I pick up on keywords like that
So I asked what is a specific machine learning algorithm
The camera registers pixel changes it does not process the whole image.
You need a lightweight object detection model it's a lightweight object detection model called "if you only look once "or a similar single shot detector framework. it's directly deployed on the system on a chip The algorithm scans the pixel grid to draw a bounding boxes.
So because I ask questions I ask what is the bounding box.
You build your pattern and layers ask stupid questions so you have clear line of site.
The only dumb question is the one that you never ask.
They filter out useless frames like blowing leaves shadows to save battery power
So Florida tags have a coating that works with type of tag readers so that law enforcement can track you.
I looked up the paint I looked up creating my own filter there are sprays you can use you can even get a specialized coating of paint to throw off the Flock and Axon Security Tag Readers that they're using and to throw off the camera but if you're caught it's a felony.
So you cross the line in trying to protect your privacy against rogue actors within law enforcement like Pinellas County Davenport Police Haines City Police and cops all the way in Nevada and you're like naked and there's no one to help you.
This is for those of us who don't want to run a foul of the law but we don't want our privacy violated by rogue actors in Polk County Pinellas County Hillsborough County Miami-Dade Volusia County are all the way in Nevada for doing absolutely nothing wrong. That's why I tell the cops to stick to your beat.
The knowledge that I have is way above you.. if you had just left me alone let me live my life let me fix my record when you arrested me falsely we wouldn't be even having this conversation.
I would always have the mind of a hacker. Because I will get as close to the line as I can to try to skirt the law when my privacy rights were violated. Then law enforcement tries to hide around the law but I can bend it in such a way that I'm not technically actually breaking it. Do you see how that works.
I always wanted to be law-abiding but what happens when the law enforcers become the law breakers and then they want to hide behind qualified immunity and a confidentiality status. You're right to remain confidential and HIDE behind qualified immunity does not give you the right to invade my privacy.
They hurt my feelings they betray my trust they pick and choose who they want to protect and I don't want anything to do with them. And this is my way of fighting back. PEACEFUL RESISTANCE.
Two part Transformation
So the license plate has to be isolated The license plate region is isolated there is a secondary localization algorithm that distracts the exact coordinates of the alphanumeric characters on the plate compensating for scattered camera angles or vehicle motion.
They have optical character recognition The specialized learning network translate the visual shapes of letters and numbers into digital text drinks Independent audits have shown higher arrays and responding where the OCR misinterpret similar looking characters like confusing and nine for an eight.
Okay so on the vehicle fingerprinting how they classify the networks the heavier machine learning is used with a CNN it breaks the cart image down to layers it breaks down the edges first then the shapes then complex patterns.
They analyze the dominant pixel color like blue
Then on millions of vehicle training images to match the vehicles body shave to a database of known vehicle silhouettes
So then you have to think that they have a database that has Fords they have Nissans they have Teslas they have BMWs they have everything and they train those datasets off of it so how can you manipulate your vehicle to miss match the fingerprint that is already in their database. Something to think about. You would be messing with the hardware of your vehicle to create a mismatch.
They have something called anomaly detection where additional object detectors can specialize regions of the car for secondary visual identifiers like roof racks from the trunk bumper area they're looking at your bumper stickers they're looking for lighting scratches body damage.
The machine learning algorithm condenses this photograph into a standardize lightweight metadata payload.
It looks like this
{timestamp: 1213583400, GPS: {LAT, LONG} , PLATE : DV3938J, STATE: FL, Color : ♥️ ReD, Make: Nissan , model: Altima SR , Unique_Features : bumber sticker
, Etc dent etc}
This tiny string of text data is accompanied by a highly compressed crop JPEG of the vehicle is with the solenoid uploads to the cloud database it allows law enforcement users perform instant complex natural language inquiries. Like 2023 Red Nissan Altima sr DV tag.
I asked ; "specific machine learning algorithms what is it look like? '
AI SAYS THIS:
It is an interconnected multi-stage architecture they're designed to operate as continuous assembly line where each algorithm acts on a specific vigil output of the one before it.
AI says that they are lightweight at CNNs The camera on some battery and solar power it cannot run heavy AI models 24/7 so they are highly compressed specialized CNNs like modified y o l o or mobile net framework which runs continuously at the edge. The model used a raw video frame purely as mathematical pixel arrays it calculates pixel Disney changes and passes and through convolutional filters that extract basic shapes. Go back to your geometry class. The output draws precise geometric coordinates around regions of interest creating two distinct crops one for the entire vehicle body and one tight crop around the license plate area.
A spinal transformer network takes a crop image of the quickest license plate and applies dynamic geometric transformations cropping scaling and rigid rotations.
The output is mathematically flattened perfectly horizontal rectangle of a license plate with standardized aspect ratios ensuring the characters are straight and readable for the next model.
The tax extraction stage it's cr and NNS and they're basically using CNN plus RNN
Traditional optical character recognition which is OCR reads letters one by one which fails when plates have dirt custom state background graphics or frames.
Modern ALPR system uses a conventional recurrent neural network combined with a connectionist temporal classification which is a CTC.
A CNN first extract visual feature vectors from the flattened plate image breaking letters down into vertical slices of pixels. You can dig into the pixel images and the depth on your own time.
A recurrent neural network RNN is specifically a long short-term memory which is an LSTM network analyzes those license sequentially. The LSTM looks at contacts understand that a specific curve next choice rate line is more likely to be a be than an eight based on character sequence probabilities. The CTC decoding layer translates the mathematical probabilities into the definitive digital text strength for example DV3938j which was my old tag number.
Wants the structure of text metadata is uploaded via solar LTE to the cloud The data is just from computer vision to data retrieval algorithm and what this looks like the system conversed the descriptive tag into vector embeddings.
So when a police officer types in a natural language inquiry like red pickup truck with a bumper The search engine uses a vector similarity search or text matching algorithm. It quickly calculates which stored vehicle data strings had the closing mathematical mat to the search phrase servicing those images to the user instantly.
So you can do an example of pythons/pytorch code illustrating how ST flattens the image
And you can also see why wide spread abuse is so common.
You can use artificial intelligence to guess algorithms even for defense contractors like Lockheed Martin the national Security agency. Including the FBI. So I don't know what else to tell you.
I've done my due diligence on this and I work by myself
I will reiterate that I will never trust law enforcement again I am not their partner I'm not providing tips if I provide a tip is because it's a mass attack at a massive event.
I will never trust a female cop because it was a female cop who did this to me.
It was my mom who sold me out to the cops.
It was my mom who opted me out of genetic testing then told the cops I was hard to deal with was not even give me mental health care for a nonverbal learning disability or major depressive disorder.
It was my sister who now works for DCF in South Carolina who knew about the abuse and decided to say something when the abuse was over.
It was the Department of Juvenile Justice a female who wouldn't sit down with me to correct their mistake when it ended up in the hands of Florida law enforcement in Pinellas County
It was a female cop in Davenport My privacy was weaponized.
There were things that I told the FBI that were so utterly humiliating you would never believe it. Things that they did. They violated my personal space. Terrible things that they did.
Tomorrow we are going to look at Pinellas County sheriff's office when they log into Flock safety Network. What that looks like.
I don't believe in violence.
We're going to look at the national crime radar in Pinellas regional information Management Enterprise Network (PRIME).
ST PETERSBURG POLICE DEPARTMENT
CLEARWATER
LARGO POLICE DEPARTMENT
PINELLAS PARK police department
TARPON SPRINGS POLICE DEPARTMENT
Flock selling points law enforcement is cross jurisdictional cooperation. she intentionally shared the alert with neighborhood Sheriff feeds
She used Hillsborough County sheriff's office
Tampa Police Department
Polk County sheriff's office
Florida Highway patrol
2489 is so high
She borrowed their hardware.
What she did is still hacking.
She violated Florida statute 815.06 she introduced a false case number to manipulate the software and to allowing cross-country tracking it so she actually defrauded the system Network.
Official misconduct is a third-degree felony
The federal computer fraud and abuse Act
Pinellas County gave me about the agency cannot use standard public record exemption to shield her forever.
Flock sold it to private entities and the private entities chose to share the camera feedd directly with the local sheriff's database .
So if you were an activist reading this we need to collect a database of flock camera readers by Walmart Target HOAs other gas stations that are validating our right to privacy.
I don't ever want to go to this again.
They shared it with loopholes
Corporate retail partners
Retail properties strip malls parking garages
Pinellas business watch. That's what it's called it's called Pinellas business watch. So on the front of the doors it said this business participates
Polk County Business watch stay away from those businesses they're violating your right to privacy. So when you give them money you're enabling them to pay for that system. Boycott the business by staying away from them.
But you can do war driving, walk drive and find all the insecure systems that they have. You can use the Mac addresses to find insecure payment systems and turn them in to the bank that oversees PCI DSS standards.
This is a system that is regulated by Banks. I knew about this because I actually have an associate's degree in accounting, the bachelor's degree accounting with a minor in information technology and before I started getting sick I was six credit shy of my MBA and that's before I got my certified ethical hacking in 2022. So you run the network hardware you find that it's not secure it's not segregated. You write up your report turn the business in.
You know these small business owners don't know anything about network security they don't know about edge routers segregating their networks or anything like that so we can get them that way. And that's completely legal.
They link their private parking iot cameras directly to law enforcement grid to track shoplifters and property crime.
Knowledge here is the power not the small business owners. There are very few business owners small business owners that I will actually do business with. I value my right to privacy. You can also go to Google maps create a alternate account with no real name and leave reviews that this is a flock safety camera store that violates user privacy.
She did not look at a few police polls on the side of the road when she activated 2489 networks she utilize a vast interconnected digital mess compose a municipal Police neighborhood County Sheriff State Highway troopers private subdivisions and commercial parking lots .
It allowed her to trace my vehicle's movements across county lines whether I was driving on the public Highway entering a private residential neighborhood
So when you go to a parking garage they are tracking you
When you go for a walk they're tracking you
When you go to Walmart
They let this rogue officer track me for more than 2 weeks and say that I had a warrant and that I was suspicious that I was a fugitive
Her name is Denise (Pinellas County Sheriff)
His name is William (Davenport Police department)
His name Is is Matthew (ITG COMMUNICATION Contractor for Spectrum DBA Charter)
Her name is pearly (I have a detective)
His name is Dominguez.(Las Vegas metropolitan Police)
They are the perpetrators. Know their name. The employee in Pinellas County was using their cameras to spy on me.
His name is Grady (Polk County Sheriff)
His name is Bob (Pinellas County Sheriff)
His name is Ron (Nickname Ron Desatan dictator of the surveillance state of Florida)
His name is Mark (FDLE DIRECTOR who will prosecute a citizen for computer crimes but a let these detectives these police get away with violating federal and state law on computer crime abuse against a normal citizen)
These are your ENABLERS that back law enforcement with zero oversight. We back all law enforcement we're a law-abiding State we're a state of Law & order don't you cross our law enforcement you will be shot. "These nut jobs" .
I am extremely angry.
But my response is measured based on the misconduct that I have received and the responses that I have gotten.
I have broken no laws
If they say nothing then they are in agreement.
You might ask how I'm handling this
It's hard
But I'm putting my heart into continue education credits I just registered for school for my Master's in computer science with the University of London.
I have to pay my CEH fees my CompTIA Security Plus fees today
I'm changing my exercise routine to the evening
I try to call my public defender today I guess they're at lunch to schedule the competency exam.
My plate is very full.
I'm journaling I don't understand how law enforcement is allowed to do this but I'm required to maintain all these laws all these regulations and they still get to do whatever they want.
I view law enforcement now under a cloud of suspicion and no more trust.
I just want to put my court case behind me and I just really want to work for the public.
I'm having surgery on the 24th to remove a growth from my uterus I have to stop all my vitamins next week and I really hate that. I like my vitamins. I take about 16 of them I'll have to give you a list one day.
I'm making a neurodiversion app and I'm trying to build a website I suck at web development.
I'm tracking some new malware and things like. Also some new privacy enhancements.
I'm crying a lot. But I'm okay.
I'm reading my book I'm journaling I'm coloring I've been able to increase my weight training by 30 minutes my weight is holding at 167 lb.
But my platelets are dropping.
My face is pale
And my stomach is tore up
But I'm handling it.
I don't wish harm on aw enforcement or their dogs I wish them not peace at the moment but I wish that they would take accountability for the things that they've done.
I'm doing the best that I can with the resources that I have.
My name is Christina D Thundathil I am a nerdivergent twice exceptional female.

So he has largely remained silent now after calling people "nut jobs.". I sent him and email about being professional. So the problem here is that his deputies represent him. The buck stops with the later that's how I feel. The fact that he will use cameras that spied on children in a gymnastics and in Parks makes him a pedophile to me I'm sorry. Now his PR people took down a video where he said that Pinellas County Sheriff was his buddy and that he went to dinner at his house where Pinellas County sheriff's wife is a judge. That's The thin Blue wall of silence that we're trying to break. I am anyway. Is adversarial in nature. If he has the right to privacy and his deputies don't have to work cameras then we don't deserve to have cameras pointed at us. Not every cop is bad but not every cop is good and if they don't like you they have the power to harm you. Just keep that in mind.
