I post the following news item with deep sorrow:
Flock cameras are an endangered technology in Toledo, Ohio, with a sixth camera now vandalized in the past two months in a city with a quarter million residents.
The latest Flock camera put out of service in an act of vandalism took place on the city’s west end, according to authorities and local news reports.
Toledo police are investigating after the pole holding up a camera and solar panel appears to have been cleanly cut near the ground, local station WTOL reported.
The half dozen cameras put out of service in the past 60 days include one that was “pushed to the ground” over Labor Day weekend and three others that were knocked down in mid-August on the city’s east side, along with others in Oregon, a Toledo suburb, police said.
Wait… I can’t keep this up:
And let us not forget to honor the heroes of The Resistance:
Not that I have any love for our overly-watchful overlords, but Flock cameras have been around for a while. Does it strike anyone as odd that the backlash has sprung up all of a sudden?
Not-necessarily-unrelated factoid: every “media trend” is a psyop.
Is it possible that someone could make a mobile emp and mount it to an old school pre computer gas guzzling car and drive it around and fry and disable these privacy invasion devices?
I don’t care what any lawyer or court says – these flock things for sure violate people’s 4th amendment rights. They are NOT just cameras in public.
# FUCK FLOCK
# FUCK THE LIBERALS
# FUCK BIG BROTHER
By the way – where the fuck are the flick devices themselves made? China?
I’m surely believing (SARCASM) that in addition to the us govt only using these solve crimes that the china communist party is also NOT SPYING on us citizens.
What in the actual fuck?
