Yes, the police own the videos they take of you? Like LLM companies own the models they digest from the texts they don't own? | ||

There's no such thing as legal ownership of data. There's IP rights, contracts and innumerable data regulation laws, but not actual ownership. "Ownership" here just provides a vague cover that sounds like something definite but is not. | ||

I believe they're implying that Flock still has access to it even if the police technically retain legal ownership. | ||
