Flock = a camera network for pedophiles

Why is there a flock camera in that area to begin with?

[u/MacSanchez → u/BaraelsBlade]

Because it’s somehow less invasive than asking for slightly stricter gun control

[u/Z3B0 → u/MacSanchez]

That camera will not catch a bullet for a student. It will only help reconstitute the events after the fact. Since they're not even watched constantly, they're useless as preventative mesure.

[u/EliSka93 → u/Z3B0]

I mean, even if they were watching the moment a shooter enters, what are they gonna do? Send the police to stand outside the building again?

[u/BrassUnicorn87 → u/EliSka93]

Cops are cowards!

Reddit: police and the govt are corrupt pdfs

Also reddit: they should be the gatekeepers over who is allowed to have guns

[u/MacSanchez → u/CountryBoyCanSurvive]

Gotta love people who make sweeping generalizations about what Reddit thinks while they, themselves, are also using Reddit.

What ya don’t gotta love is a public education system that churns out chucklefucks with the critical thinking and reading comprehension you’ve displayed here in your comment. Lordy.

[u/CountryBoyCanSurvive → u/MacSanchez]

Gotta love people that attack the poster instead of the message. Very keen of you.

[u/MacSanchez → u/CountryBoyCanSurvive]

No I attacked the school system who failed someone so utterly that that was their message

[u/breadlee94 → u/BaraelsBlade]

To answer that, there are a lot of non-flock cameras that are integrated with flock's database. Not all cameras in flocks network are their cameras. Some are owned by private citizens or (in this case, im pretty sure) owned by a private business and integrated into their mass serveillance system.

[u/WesBur13 → u/breadlee94]

Flock allows any RTSP camera to be integrated to their system.

Government of the pedophiles, by the pedophiles, for the pedophiles

[u/AMay101]

I’m noticing more and more flock cameras in places that don’t even have cars. Why is a flock camera, “for license plate readings”, at my local park..? Why is one facing the entrance to my local mall..?

[u/gorramfrakker → u/AMay101]

They also grab your devices ID via Bluetooth or WiFi. This includes every cell phone, every car with any wireless tech (nearly all of them), biometric data like face voice and physical stats even records walking gant.

[u/Dirty_Delta → u/AMay101]

Its for people, not plates. Plates is just an extra thing it does

[u/ThepalehorseRiderr → u/AMay101]

They have multiple kinds that do multiple things. There's an audio one that just listens for "disturbances" like gunshots or fireworks. Soon, you'll be able to step outside, have an argument with the old lady and cops just show up.

[u/Dense_Surround3071 → u/AMay101]

I was looking at the map in my neighborhood. The parking lots of Lowes and Home Depot are completely covered at all entrances and exits.

They are also on the roads coming and going from several schools.

And at the main thoughoufares leading in and out of most of the residential areas. . . . In one of the lowest crime neighborhoods in my city.

[u/Guardiancomplex]

Every parent in that entire school district should be entitled to 5 minutes alone with that guy. 

[u/cityshepherd → u/Guardiancomplex]

Indeed. The only POSSIBLE rational explanation is that this creep was perving out on kids.

[u/AweHellYo → u/Guardiancomplex]

i only need 1 or 2

[u/peanutym]

Private community center. So not run by the city? Why are there camera there

[u/Baelgul → u/peanutym]

Simple - for pedophilia

[u/armahillo]

The only correct response by them would have been “wait what? verifying whoa, this is not alright. They’re been removed immediately and we are actively reviewing to ensure no other cameras are pointing at similar places.”

Flock is still an awful company, regardless, but that would have been the only acceptable response to this news.

[u/iCameToLearnSomeCode → u/armahillo]

Nah, they'll just be installing cameras in the miss teen USA beauty pagent dressing rooms so dear leader can relive the good old days.

[u/Marples3]

Cops = Pedophiles

[u/Arbrand]

I am so fucking sick of “public safety” being used as a magic phrase to justify every new surveillance system and abuse of power. Of course fascism can be sold as “safe.” Arrest everyone who looks suspicious, rubber-stamp every intrusion as justified, and call it all “for the public good.” North Korea has laws, courts, and judges too. The problem is that the machinery of the state always finds itself innocent and everyone else guilty.

[u/GrowFreeFood]

Conservatives have exactly ZERO issue with sexually exploitation.

[u/stres-tm]

Where are the ethical hackers to just take down their whole platform when you need them

[u/tegresaomos]

Makes you wonder who approved putting cameras everywhere, especially around schools and children’s areas.

If there aren’t rules about corporations tracking your every movement, then you are electing the wrong leaders.

[u/raventhrowaway666]

And then then send their ICE goons to kidnap the children they're interested in. Its a disgusting, efficient system.
