This is only fair play given the cities and DAs around the country have refused to indict or prosecute Flock surveillance when they break the law.

- parineum 1mo agoWhen did they do that?
- thegreenswede 1mo agoMany of the features flock provides or basically mimics in functionality have been declared illegal in the supreme Court (multiple cases). But of course since Flock is a NEW tech that's a UNIQUE combination of things, their lawyers can argue there is no EXPLICIT law in books for what Flock is, so they basically do whatever they want until the law catches up. By the time they happens it won't matter. Tale as old as time.
- superkuh 1mo agoFor one: calling in false police reports on people who video recorded the Flock subsidiary buildings by claiming they are on their property and saying "We don't know if they're armed." in an attempt to get them killed by police. Flock corporation's shells corps really don't like being recorded from public spaces adjacent to them and respond with attempts to incite violence against those that legally and peacefully record them. Which would be hilariously hypocritical if it weren't so dangerous. ref: https://youtu.be/S3MQLlMbS-Y?t=1894 https://youtu.be/S3MQLlMbS-Y?t=1894 (sorry this is a youtube video, recording of the false and inciting police report) And then there are the cities that Flock is forcing to keep cameras physical up and which have to resort to putting bags over them like in Dayton, Ohio.
