They are for identifying dissidents to round up in the future, not for reducing the incidence rate of petty crime.

Governments and AI billionaires are all talking about some utopian future where we are all free to do what we want and have a universal basic income to support us. But the deployment of a draconian surveillance network, militarised police, domestic concentration camps and 'left wing terrorist' rhetoric is not painting a picture of a future utopia.

I’m not afraid to say that we can be quite certain that the Flock surveillance network will be detrimental to civil liberties. No doubt.

It literally already has been used to monitor activists.

I am so done sugar coating shit for these people who refuse to acknowledge the direction our civil liberties are heading.

It’s not FUD. Flock is permanently storing information when they say they’re not and the police are can look back at least six months. I imagine this is a premium feature.

A police department had to get more evidence because they got the wrong suspect in six months elapsed before the prosecutor got to see the case and tell them there was zero evidence.

After searching, back six months for the right color of car near the accident, in the flock database, they were able to locate another suspect.

Flock has location data for every car and have months of knowing when and where image recognition has seen a similar enough car. I hope they don’t get into tracking people. This is already horrifying.

Not a single thing I have said above is in any way, shape or form incorrect.

The "dissidents" are in plain view, you don't need flock to identify them. Track them down, catch some traffic violations to throw the book for - maybe.
