He should just point a flock camera at his house. Then he’ll be 80% safer based on a study I just made up like the ones on their sales pitch.

It's okay, he has nothing to hide, right?

concerns over privacy and potential police misuse.

Couldn't even go one sentence without propaganda. It's very well documented that it is ACTIVELY being misused. Concerns is their "allegedly" to escape libel allegations, this was a choice.

I'll say this as many times as it takes. NEWSWEEK ISNT FUCKING NEWS. IT IS A TABLOID. IT IS LESS THAN NOTHING. STOP FUCKING POSTING IT AND GIVING THESE GHOULS MONEY.

What's the problem? I thought privacy was a small price to pay for "safety?"

Sounds like that Kirk guy on guns.

Its almost like privacy is a good thing.

Hope nothing bad happens to you. Surely not. Flock cameras make everything safer right?

“Backers of the technology say it helps solve crimes”

Should be easy to list the crimes it’s solved, where’s that list?

Folks should show up at the edge of his property with lawn chairs and coolers and just "hang out". Don't speak to him or threaten him in anyway, just sit there and Document everything he does. When he complains tell him it's for his safety and he should thank them.

He just needs to compromise on his privacy.

'If he's done nothing wrong there's nothing to hide'

This is public information see https://ecorp.sos.ga.gov/BusinessSearch/BusinessInformation
Search for flock group and you will get the address.

Edit: It's an office address

This is a periodic reminder. I'm on mobile so I'm copying a previous comment.

Flock Safety is only the tip of the problem.

Some districts are de-Flocking only to install an Axon ALPR network service. Keep fighting until your community outlaws all ALPRs and ALPR lookups are inadmissable in court.

There are other technologies that are already in use and widely abused by law enforcement such as IMSI catchers, geofence warrants and Drones as First Responder. Learn what your district allows and be a civil nuisance untill that shit is blocked.

Judges have long ceased tightly constraining judicial warrants, and most courts accept the good faith exception, so US and state courts cannot be trusted with any overreaching surveillance technology or forensic tools. This includes chromatic field drug tests and detection dogs.

Good. Very good. I hope he feels true fear. I hope he gets what is deserved.

You live by the sword, you die by the sword, dickhead.

He's cool with stealing all of our data, and making us feel helpless about what others are doing with it, so I don't see why he shouldn't feel that same fear.

Oh no, won't somebody think of his privacy

Btw in a completely unrelated train of thought, have you guys seen the low low prices on poo flinging trebuchets?

Lots of information about people is online.

...Does he have something to hide?

"We announced changes that required auditing, that required using our audit assistance tool, which detects abnormal behavior, and we're calling on state regulators to focus less on banning this type of technology and more [on] holding our law enforcement community accountable.”

This is absolutely passing the buck. "The collection of your data isn't wrong, it's just the myriad ways it can be abused. We want to play whack-a-mole for every problem; as unelected corporate policy that totally isn't purely profit driven."

Not-a-lawyer, but I'm quite sure I haven't signed any TOS allowing Flock to capture or retain my data for any amount of time. Just by driving through a city where some other idiot signed away my rights probably shouldn't hold up in court.

Legislation should be prioritizing punishing misuse of PII, expanding what PII means in our modern world, and enforcing information sharing barriers instead of eroding them.

If you can tell exactly where I was yesterday at 2:35pm because my car's internal spyware pinged, my cellphone pinged, I drove past a few ALPR cameras and my credit card was used at a vendor, all without a warrant; then the related data is PII and needs to be protected in a way it isn't currently.

Corporations should not have data-sharing agreements with governments and should not be allowed to sell their user data to third parties at all.

Dude also has his house blurred out on Google Maps street view.

Let's start a car tracker log for him like that one person did for elons planes.

Quite a campaign to quietly install these all over the country, use free pilot programs, kept the cost low enough to not need city council vote after public discussions and hide in tech costs, so the fuss happens after they wasted all this money. Talk about fraud and scamming the public out of tax money, and used against the public and w/o our actual consent. They're supposed to serve and work for We The People, but used multiple methods to lie and hide it from us. Doing the wrong thing has to be hidden, not honest things.

Keep track of his every move just so we know he isn't breaking the law

I hope he never has another moment of peace in his entire life until Flock is abolished. Even then....

Does he feel unsafe? Just put up a Flock camera on your house, Garrett! So we can all be sure that you are as safe as a bug all snug in a rug.

Postcards have lower postage rates than regular letters.
Also harder to ignore a card that just says 'fuck you' on it in sharpie. For more fun: imitate the vibes of the local utility bill in a letter but fit a lot more fuck yous inside

Maybe put up some cameras all around his house and social life and broadcast it while at it

Are they calling for a mustached Italian plumber?

Dude fuck that guy

Massive criminal

He took the risk of pissing off the masses for profit. And it looks that he now faces the consequences.

Nothing wrong with instilling a little bit of healthy fear in the rich and powerful.

Just keeping him safe. Maybe keeping the neighbors safe. Need to see if there’s a blue dot on his house.

They’re coming for you, Langley
