Ole Ben Franklin is particularly relevant here:
Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety.
In other words, Flock can go fuck themselves with a stiff wire brush.
This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.

What the fuck kind of compromise? "Let us technical loophole around your constitutional rights just a little bit?"
How about we compromise and let that guy in Tennessee hang you just a little bit.
I propose this compromise:
Compromise dez nuts
Fucking fascist.
Compromise: Quit now, and keep your head.
I like the whole "publicly hanged for treason" thing.
was about to make a similar post.
Stop building the invasive bullshit, or we start building guillotines.
Here's my compromise: we give the Flock CEO twenty to life instead of sentencing him to public flaying like he deserves.
How about we don't duplicate George Orwells 1984 irl?
Little bitch is negotiating, and it's not even Halloween, yet.
Here's a compromise: how about you fuck off?
The compromise is you scrap every camera, or we do.
That's how you know the reasons behind flock is nefarious, when they have to scale back what they're doing because of how blatantly obvious the overreach and invasion of privacy.
they give the data to palantir, they are pretty linked to gether.
Compromise offer: you stop spying on us and we'll stop breaking your cameras.
Compromise: kill yourself
The more you learn about Flock, the scarier it gets. They have FULL profiles built on EVERY american that has flock cameras nearby. All your shopping, driving, financial habits are tracked. They know who all your friends and family are and how often you visit, they track your vehicles specific identifiable features like bumper damage, stickers, faded paint, etc. All of that is a complete violation of the 4th amendment and all these companies need to be sued.
Even deeper, they claim to be able to read "pet tags," which would mean they can read ANY RFID, they know your gym code, if you have a fob for your apartment they can clone it and get in like a kid with a Flipper 0.
Idk how it's physically possible so hopefully they're lying, they should have to be basically touching the tag, but they claim they can. I'd believe they can read UHF RFID but that isn't what they claimed, they specified "pet tags" (which again, would mean they can do all tags.) And that would mean they can add NFC and read your cards in your wallet, if they wanted, because that isn't far off from RFID. Now ostensibly they'd have to perform the handshake with your card so they'd only have the same partial info a Flipper could pull, but like, still not a fan of that personally.
Take your cameras down and maybe people don't want to destroy them. Good compromise, eh?
There is absolutely no reason to track people everywhere they go. We were fine before these things.
Yup, violent crime has been dropping for decades and not an insignificant drop. We did not need mass surveillance, we did not want mass surveillance, nor do we want it now.
Lead levels dropped
Here is your compromise. Shutter your company & we won't hang you.
I can guarantee this has been said already, but the compromise is simple; no flock cameras (or comparable tech) anywhere.
Corporate CEOs can all have 1 camera each, on their front lawn, for them to hang from.
And the zombies said "all we want to do is eat your brains, maybe we can compromise..."
What the US should prioritize is opportunity, education, corporate regulation, housing affordability, justice and dealing with corruption.
Gee, then they wouldn't need the surveillance state.
You're right, but all the 1% heard was: you think they should have less yacht money.
I am not even against the yacht money, just fucking STOP with the ARISTOCRATIC behaviors, dynamics, incentives.
I support a wealth cap ample enough to own a yacht, but not enough to make rogue aristocravcy viable. At least for now. The billionaires are doing everything they can to convince me that maybe even the yacht money is too much wealth holding.
Eat a dick bitch
A bag of dicks, even
These concerns aren’t just hypothetical. The Washington Post recently identified 46 cases where police officers have been accused of using Flock technology for unauthorized purposes, including to stalk their wives, girlfriends, or exes.
After listening to an interview with one of the alleged victims, Langley told CBS News, “I apologize. It kills me that she went through that.” At the same time, he insisted, “I don’t think that Flock created police abuse. I think we’re the first company to ever shine a light on it and build the tools to find it.”
Oh fuck off. You don't get to call yourself a hero for making a problem worse.
No, Garrett, we don't negotiate with surveillance states.
Pillory this man. I am not joking even a little. Put him in stocks in the middle of a major city and encourage people to pelt him with rotting produce.
I do not want Flock cameras surveiling me or my car where it will inevitably become data that's combined with a million other data points on me that might be able to determine what I'm doing, what I'm thinking, and what I might do in the future, just to be able to say we're "safer".
*We didn't invent police abuse! We actually shined a light on it and pointed it out"
Fuck right the hell off with this shit. You don't get to sell your panopticon to a group that routinely abuses every tool they have, and feign ignorance in defense of the results.
Tar and feathers are not expensive, and it's a hilarious thing to do to someone
Nah.
No compromise with our rights being infringed upon.
Destroy them all.
Anyone who would give up essential liberty to purchase a little temporary safety deserves neither.
Garrett can get fucked.
We had a compromise. It's called the bill of rights. Goes like this:
