Technology

That's why they get paid the money they get paid.

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

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

This dude is so screwed. I don't think he even realizes yet.

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?

Its almost like privacy is a good thing.

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

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.

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.

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.

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

Sounds like that Kirk guy on guns.

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

Dude fuck that guy

Massive criminal

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 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.

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.

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

He just needs to compromise on his privacy.

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

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

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.

Checking, checking...yep, he's on The List.

"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.

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

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

What shit headline. Property ownership was always public record. His address was shared forever by the county assessor. Like everyone's.

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

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