just when you thought it was bad, it gets worse.
why do sales employees have access (or ability to request access) to camera feeds at all?
i would like to know what other cameras adam snow, bob carter, cameran whiteman view regularly. "search him hard drive" as the kids say.
(p.s. https://www.ycombinator.com/companies/flock-safety https://www.ycombinator.com/companies/flock-safety, sadly the "latest news" section does not have "flock sales employees caught watching kids", just hundreds of millions in funding to realize the minority report)
- tclancy 7mo agoHow else would they sell to additional customers if they couldn't demo random video feeds from all over?
- john_strinlai 7mo agoperhaps by setting up a dedicated "demo feed”, rather than access the cameras of live customers, like every other product that i have sat through a demo for can you imagine sales force or dynamics poking around some random company's live data during a demo to some other company?
- mixdup 7mo agoaccess to every camera on the system is the selling point
- john_strinlai 7mo ago"our employees can watch any camera at any time" is not one of their selling points.
- mixdup 7mo ago"your officers can watch any camera at any time" absolutely is one of their selling points

- themafia 7mo agoI've had a few sales reps do this for products they're trying to sell us. In front of me, they've opened their laptop, with no password, then used some remote access solution to access another customers equipment, and then demonstrate functions on it. I made a rule. If you do this I cannot possibly trust you. I will never buy your products. It's insane to me.
