With all the cameras being re-patriated by good citizens, I’m sure a number of them already made their way to skilled hackers, tinkerers.

And given how amateurish Flock was with their most recent PR event (a reporter tried to attend, got rejected almost last minute, Flock even went behind his back to cancel his hotel booking, so our guy went full out and with a metric fuckton of RF equipment, monitored the event’s signals. WiFi, Bluetooth, wireless mics (which they often left on and just broadcasting out into the wild), I have a feeling that the whole Flock ecosystem is riddled with security issues.

I wouldn’t be surprised if there’s some incredibly dumb stupid kill switch built into the firmware that can be triggered by something as simple as an ESP32.
