      Flock safety cameras are hitting 20 billion scans a month now. Thats insane coverage and more cities keep canceling contracts cause residents hate the data sharing across states.

      Privacy folks say its basically nonstop tracking not just for bad crimes. In the future these networks might hook into everything else making it tough to move around without being logged. Troy’s mess shows how fast it turns political.

    2. There is an instant need for nation wide legislation limiting data collection.

      Flocks have good cover up story with safety, and the fact that cities are paying for it.

      But there is instant awarness on side of personal data hoarding business that the first to capture public spaces with devices able to track all the people will be a huge winner.

      The question isn’t whether it catches criminals. It’s whether everyone should be tracked just in case they become one.

      This is the reason we don’t just DNA test everyone at birth and put them in a register. Because every time that database is checked they police are accusing you of a crime – it may be fleetingly, as they fly past and go ‚Nope‘ – but they’ve put you in a line up, and not as filler.

      These cameras are actively investigating you and your movements every day, and recording them for future criminal investigation – whether there is reason or not.

      You are now assumed guilty of something for just being outside your house – or at least guilty enough that its worth keeping hold of the data, eh? Just in case.

    6. Remember when everyone thought China was an authoritarian hell hole for doing stuff like this?

    7. When I recognize a flock camera they are also capturing my middle finger as I drive by. 1984 is here…enjoy the rest of the ride.

      Claiming privacy on a license plate is kind of silly considering it’s something that’s publicly visible on your vehicle at all times in public places.

    9. I’ve heard that there is a lot of copper in those Flock cameras. ¯_(ツ)_/¯

    10. It’s interesting how if the government want to check ID to stop kids getting onto social media it’s a huge deal.

      Cameras scanning everyone and their cars? Tracking your movements? All good! It’s a private corporation!!

    11. Never should have been a thing in the first place.

      Stop letting yourself get tracked everywhere 

    12. Tickets are regressive. It’s basically a tax on people who need to drive themselves, and have no access to public transport, and it doesn’t scale with wealth. As such it is a clear attempt to transfer wealth from poor to rich via penalties which then offset tax cuts.

      „Then don’t speed!!!1!“

      There are documented instances of towns getting a smidgeon of highway and draconically enforcing speed traps, then using that money to fund their town infrastructure at passerby’s expense. It can absolutely be a scam. It’s just the technology to automate it and maximize the take is now cost effective enough.

      And this is the reason for Stargate. So much data is collected, web searches, video surveillance, millions of sensors all apart of the internet of things and other methods we aren’t even aware of.

      Stargate is being deployed to process all of this data with AI and build digital copies of us. Surveillance of what we do and model our behaviours to identify our wrongdoings before we do them like minority report.

      Stargate is going to be the ultimate form of control and our governments are fast tracking and funding it.

      You guys are all so worried about ALPRs but what you should really be worried about is the most sophisticated surveillance device ever known that you voluntarily carry around in your pocket everyday. Forget ALPRs, they are just an add on to your phone.

      Nothing reaks of violating the 4th amendment like this. It’s gross

    16. This is a symptom of the worst outcome of AI. It makes mass surveillance easily actionable, in the 70s the stasi has the mass surveillance apparatus in place but the overwhelming amount of information prevented them from being able to easily use it. But now the authorities can generate an AI optimize route for the police to pick up people based off a keyword search.
