they'll just start hiding them better.. and in places that are most certainly a bad idea to tamper with, like embedded right inside stop lights

Nothing that can't be fixed with one of those 1000 mW handheld lasers.

[-] dan1101@lemmy.world 9 points 21 hours ago

Yeah this is the sort of thing we now have to stay vigilant about. Companies, state and local officials, and law enforcement all want a 24/7 queryable surveillance network to happen.

Would be crazy if the general public became aware of axon too!

[-] dan1101@lemmy.world 2 points 13 hours ago

We need to start gathering signatures for recall elections when our elected officials go rogue and start approving data centers and mass warrantless surveillance.

Not just axon, there's more :(

[-] grue@lemmy.world 5 points 16 hours ago

Name them if you can, please.

[-] Malyca@lemmy.zip 4 points 20 hours ago

They have drones that record from up high now

[-] cy888@lemmy.world 2 points 13 hours ago

Drones have to come down for fuel. Used mainly when there is a suspected target, not for general surveillance

The they’ll learn that it’s expensive to hide them there, and they’ll have to leave a note about that to their successors when they get voted the FUCK out

Welcome to the News community!

Rules:

1. Be civil


Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.


2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.


Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.


3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.


Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.


4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.


Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.


5. Only recent news is allowed.


Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.


6. All posts must be news articles.


No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.


7. No duplicate posts.


If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.


8. Misinformation is prohibited.


Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.


9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.


All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.


10. Don't copy entire article in your post body


For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.
