When we no longer have concentration camps whose victims are located via Flock, then I'll be okay with them. It's not hypothetical, it's happening right now. h

They're putting people in pens and then murdering them, and using Flock cameras to round them up.

They're putting people in pens and then murdering them, and using Flock cameras to round them up. I don't want this either. Might this be better attributed to politics/administration/policies? So maybe you're opposed to technologies that assist the governement with tracking people? If Flock starts solving missing abducted trafficked persons cases, would this sway your opinion? Or if the data is highly restricted?

  I don't care if Flock is used to cure cancer. It's being used to oppress millions of people right now. We need to stop the harm now. It can be reintroduced later when we have a less psychotic administration. On a more 'logical' note: compare the number of people it theoretically could help, to the number of people non-theoretically being harmed by it right now. The latter number is higher. On a purely emotionless, mathematical point of view, it is a net negative. (And this is a charitable rationalization; using a theoretical future to justify a present harm is illogical)
