They’re just switching to Axon.

Axon, Axe off
Flock off, mother flockers.
Axon is here to mother your fucks!!!
If municipalities want to put the "Axon" surveillance cameras, I wouldn't be opposed.
Funnily enough with Axon they seem to surveil less than half as much as they did previously, giving the anti-flock movement an actual sense of accomplishment. If they continue to fight against Axon, the next vendor will be even smaller.
But yeah they need to outlaw this anyway or it will keep creeping back.
Not discounting the fight against this, but I'm guessing the next move is to make these less known to the public and in places that are harder to remove them.
Doesn't matter what they call them.
People are just going to keep going.
lets hope people can recognize axon, or other surveillance cameras.
