    Oh no, won’t somebody think of his privacy

    Btw in a completely unrelated train of thought, have you guys seen the low low prices on poo flinging trebuchets?

    Does he feel unsafe? Just put up a Flock camera on your house, Garrett! So we can all be sure that you are as safe as a bug all snug in a rug.

    This is a periodic reminder. I’m on mobile so I’m copying a previous comment.

    Flock Safety is only the tip of the problem.

    Some districts are de-Flocking only to install an Axon ALPR network service. Keep fighting until your community outlaws all ALPRs and ALPR lookups are inadmissable in court.

    There are other technologies that are already in use and widely abused by law enforcement such as IMSI catchers, geofence warrants and Drones as First Responder. Learn what your district allows and be a civil nuisance untill that shit is blocked.

    Judges have long ceased tightly constraining judicial warrants, and most courts accept the good faith exception, so US and state courts cannot be trusted with any overreaching surveillance technology or forensic tools. This includes chromatic field drug tests and detection dogs.

    Folks should show up at the edge of his property with lawn chairs and coolers and just “hang out”. Don’t speak to him or threaten him in anyway, just sit there and Document everything he does. When he complains tell him it’s for his safety and he should thank them.

      You’d need to get the attention of MAGA on this if you wanted people to do stuff IRL

      They’d drive a convoy around his block blasting Metallica for a week after coordinating with their friends in the police and bringing donuts to local tow companies. Maybe if you’re lucky someone on the left will flyer a coffee shop in Chicago.

    concerns over privacy and potential police misuse.

    Couldn’t even go one sentence without propaganda. It’s very well documented that it is ACTIVELY being misused. Concerns is their “allegedly” to escape libel allegations, this was a choice.

    I’ll say this as many times as it takes. NEWSWEEK ISNT FUCKING NEWS. IT IS A TABLOID. IT IS LESS THAN NOTHING. STOP FUCKING POSTING IT AND GIVING THESE GHOULS MONEY.

    He should just point a flock camera at his house. Then he’ll be 80% safer based on a study I just made up like the ones on their sales pitch.

      Would be a shame if someone created a network of cameras tracking his every move and posted it online for free in real time. Nothing illegal about that, right? No implicit threat in that, right?
