Yeah, because it’s the loophole around the charade that the gov doesn’t surveil the population. By paying companies, they can easily do what is forbidden by the constituency. Effectively, the constitution is a marketing exercise, barely existing in practice.
However, if you pay someone to murder someone, its a crime, if you pay a company to break a law, you should be held responsible. Weird shit like companies being like humans and having rights is insane and if they are treated as beings, they should be held accountable legally and that includes the CEO and board who drive them.
Cops love them because they can abuse them and spy on people for no reason, as has happened quite alot already.
Wait until Flock footage or data accidentally helps prove a cop guilty of a crime.
You mean gives them a mandatory paid vacation while it all blows over?
Exactly, this is what would actually happen.
Like the cop that used flock to stalk their ex, I believe putting “waffle” (or maybe it was “asdf”) as the reason for using them? Pretty sure they just said he did it because he was tired then got off Scott free.
Last I checked there’s been like 14 similar cases of this. As far as I know, they’ve all retired, or moved agencies.

I imagine the Flock techs, installing a fleet of cameras for the local fuzz, do training seminars where they encourage exactly this kind of thing (surveilling romantic partners). Still, the fact remains that the fuzz have good reason to know that that in particular is not allowed under any circumstances.
