So the governments that install them aren't somehow complicit? Two things can be true at once.

- tsunamifury 18d agoWhat’s worse is flock is actively suing those local governments hoping to override democratic process.
- Matl 18d agoBeware of cities 'ditching Flock' only to immediately replace them with Axon, which is the same thing.

- Mountain_Skies 18d agoDoes Axon retain the data it is collecting? If so, even if they have no plans to use it like Flock does, those plans can change, sometimes even without the company's blessing. They sound like the lesser evil right now, but the core issue that goes well beyond Flock, Axon, and similar companies is that if data is collected and retained, someone will find leverage to use it for their own purposes.

- Matl 18d agoAxon Fusus AI is very much the same thing to me, yes.
- caymanjim 18d agoIf there's anything Flock does that Axon doesn't, it's only because Axon doesn't have people smart enough to do it yet. Once the funding shifts from Flock to Axon, they'll hire the people who can make it happen, especially if enough money shifts that they can pilfer the exact same engineers. The police want the capability. Flock just happens to temporarily have the better technology.
- Matl 18d agoAxon Fusus AI is very much similar to what Flock offers. Why are you talking about body cameras to make it seem like I am comparing Flock with simple body cameras?
