Valid concern or paranoia?

Not sure what these cameras are, or what their capabilities are.

They have been shown to be prone to abuse in the wrong hands:

Flock Safety cameras help solve crimes. But who’s watching the watchers?: https://www.investigatetv.com/2026/...ras-help-solve-crimes-whos-watching-watchers/

Makes me uneasy but honestly if your taking your phone, Apple Watch, new car, etc they already know where you are.

Valid concern: police have already tried to arrest innocent people based on the cameras. But, maybe you want to be tracked continuously.

I accept how incredibly insignificant my existence is so if someone wants to keep track of that, enjoy.

I’m more concerned about the security the company themselves demand. Definitely some shady stuff going on with them. Mass surveillance is real AF.

If your doing nothing wrong it shouldn’t make your worried. Why the cameras are there ( and everywhere) is what it is. None of them will go away nor will there be less in the future.

Now, stop picking your nose!

Lowe’s has a contract with flock there in every Lowe’s parking lot in the United States and I know there’s what 10 or 12 around the Scheels in Billings MT

They have been used for all kinds of illegal things. Here we have one MAGA friendly county who was accessing data without the ok from another county and giving the info to ICE/BP, the US Post office doing the same thing, even a sheriff from another state accessing data from several states away.

Winona Mn police are looking for a person or persons who took the cities flock cameras down.

All of Winona Police Department’s Flock cameras cut down and stolen

Lost cameras valued at about $24,000

It is interesting to note that some people’s primary objection is when they’re used to surveil the people that have no right to even be here, but when it’s surveiling people that pay for them and belong in society, it’s “nothing to hide, nothing to worry”.
