    1. That should be merely the first step. They need to be treated like (or more severely) than a civilian doing the same thing.

      At least they aren’t bljusy being given expensive paid leave followed by a quiet „demotion“ but being kicked out with no further punishment leaves much to be desired, and I’m sure they are quickly being recruited by ICE where they might have even more access to tools to stalk people

      Still trying to figure out why nobody is pushing to require warrants to initiate a search. I’d have *slightly* less concern about these cameras if there was anything resembling actual oversight in their access or use.

      Which just lets you know what sort of morons we employ as police officers.

      What?! I’m shocked! SHOCKED I say! Said nobody who has ever interacted with an actual police officer ever

    5. Any officer fired for misuse of police power or resources should be barred from ANY law enforcement profession, full stop. Every “bad apple” cop just goes over to the next town or the county sheriff and gets right back to spying on his ex-wife or the brown person that took “his” spot at the Piggly Wiggly.

      It’s like they all took lessons from the Catholic Church.

      It’s almost as if the low intelligence power-tripping chip-on-their-shoulder types are not who you want as law enforcement. And yet they’re the preferred hires.

      And they are only the ones that have been caught. Imagine the true numbers.

      „Lose their job“ often means has to commute further to the neighboring jurisdiction. 

    9. Every flock search should need a warrant. Every hot list that gets set up needs a warrant. Every time you’re scanned by one of these we should get a summary of our data back to us monthly. If our plate is searched we demand a letter indicating such

      But they shouldn’t even be here. None of us voted for this surveillance. The police just did it because they’re overfunded and got excited about the open panopticon prison in Gaza- the trauma that was being caused and the psychological horror of living within 24/7 surveillance

      That’s your hint for what’s next by the way, the same thing Israel did to gazans. You will never live the same post 2026. You children won’t believe a time where this wasn’t normal 

    10. So cops kill without punishment most days but stalking is too far. The general public can stalk someone to the ends of the earth for years but if they kill the person they’ve been stalking…well now they’ve gone too far. What a world we live in.

    11. There is not national background check for police officers. There are all sorts of fucked up people becoming cops by jumping around to different states to hide their pasts.

      They are just going to get hired in the town over and keep doing it.  Police never leave the system.

      What? No way. *Criminal Minds* and *NCIS* showed me that total surveillance would only be used by hot nerdy women to track the worst kinds of criminals. Are you saying the copaganda *lied* to me?

      There is no reality where Flock is used responsibly. It WILL be abused by cops, and like every other time a cop breaks the law and violates the rights and integrity of the public, they get a slap in the wrist.

      Stuff like requiring warrants, won’t work. Every part of the legal system is corrupt, and if the only punishment for a cop abusing this is getting fired and moving PDs, they won’t feel discouraged from illegally using it.

      The public doesnt want them, the people using them are abusing them… maybe they just arent a good idea.

    16. Low_Search_6667 on

      Back when that one guy was loosing his mind about flock being a terrible thing… this type of abuse is exactly one of the problems he mentioned. 

      What guy you ask? It wasn’t a specific guy. We all had a guy on the local news screaming bullshit about flock cameras. 

      Guy was right too

    17. The police are the problem, but also, the Flock cameras are the problem. 

      Any system so easy to abuse will be abused.

      Typical Cop behaviour, probably making sure his nurse wife isn’t getting any on the side. 

    19. My dad was a social worker. He was a severe alcoholic and was horribly physically abusive.

      After my mom left him, she had to use welfare programs to get healthcare for us.

      Much later, after he died and I was going through his things, I found paperwork from his workplace: apparently he was caught using state databases he had access to to keep track of our doctor’s appointments.

      The consequence? His pay was docked for one month.

      I’ve seen nurses, techs even doctors fired just for peeking at a celebrity’s chart when they’re admitted to their hospital. These data need to be treated like HIPAA. You abuse it, you’re fucking gone
