lol a company CEO signing justifications declaring themselves the only capable source. So stupid it might be genius. Are there no contracting officers at state level, or why were just the mayor and police chief doing market research? (or not really doing market research)

Jessica Burbank believes in the junk science of the transgender industrial complex and promotes it, she’s a fantasist with garbage judgement and discernment. If one cannot discern biological reality because of a billionaire backed marketing campaign, one cannot trust their work.

Emma Vigeland is one of the dumbest pundits on the air. Why are you repeating the mistakes of The Intercept by platforming morons who cannot discern reality? Not only Krystal Ball, but you professionally affiliate with a group of the dumbest women in media. 🤡

WOW 🚨 Records requests show The city of Fullerton, California secretly approved Flock Cameras without a single public hearing or notice to the public, they approved it under a separate project name - The city signed a contract with Glassbox Digital - A calendar item for a contract with Glassbox Digital appeared on the agenda, it did not mention Flock - The details of that item involved an agenda item ‘Peregrine Services’ - Peregrine offered a Fullerton crimes data center that would integrate data from body-worn cameras, automatic license plate readers, utility systems and Flock Safety cameras - The item passed unanimously on the consent calendar with no discussion, no questions - This authorized Flock under a 5 year contract for $750,000 - The police chief then authorized Flock a 5 year term that auto renews every 2 years without a single vote or any public input This is how they secretly approved flock cameras without ever notifying the public or allowing a single question to be asked…. “That's how it got here. We got Flock because council rubber-stamped a consent calendar item that was never talked about with the public, that never mentioned Flock to the public, that never brought up any details with the public” “I'd actually like to point out Mrs. Charles over here because I find it laughable that you would go to No Kings protest to fight against tyranny and rubber-stamp the surveillance state of our citizenry without asking a single question about how the data is held, who it's given to, who has access to it, who does and does not weaponize it. Because there's an old Soviet proverb that says, "Show me the man and I'll show you the crime." And that's why these systems are being built. So shame on the council at the time and shame on everybody who pretends to care about our rights who did nothing about it” The Fullerton police department claims there are only 19 flock cameras but independent organizations claim the number is much higher, they believe the real number is closer to 52 flock cameras

This is horrifying and every American needs to hear this California resident exposes what’s really going on with Flock Cameras in America “I want to be clear what these cameras actually are, and I say that with somebody with 20 years of experience in IT. I've served as the chief network architect for Fortune 500 companies, I've designed data centers, and today I work on cloud infrastructure for one of the largest loan origination companies in the country. I'm not speculating on how this technology works. I've read their patents and I know how it works. Flock advertises these cameras as simple license plate readers. But their own patents tell a different story. They're AI-powered surveillance machines that capture every passing vehicle and person and transmit that data to a private corporate cloud, making it queryable by a multitude of state and federal agencies. The city of Corona does not control that database, and Corona residents have no public record rights against a private company's servers. Our daily movements are being harvested by a $7.5 billion corporation, that only answers to venture capital investors, not to us. Flock did not reach that valuation on their per-camera subscription fees. That math doesn't add up The city council should also understand who they're doing business with. Flock CEO was asked whether the company had any federal contracts. He said no. That was a lie. Public records revealed that Flock had been secretly running a pilot program giving the US Border Patrol access to local police camera data without the knowledge of the cities that paid for the cameras. Now consider who's behind the company and where your data flows. Flock integrates directly with Palantir, a data fusion platform, with a $30 million contract with ICE. Peter Thiel, the founder of Palantir, is also one of Flock's primary investors. These are not separate companies with separate agendas. They are connected actors that are building a connected infrastructure. Palantir's own CEO stated publicly just this month that his technology is being used as a political instrument, designed to reduce the political power of certain voters. And that's the ecosystem that our Corona cameras are feeding into. We're not anti-police at all. We're against mass surveillance of innocent residents by a company with a documented record of deception, built by investors with a stated political agenda. We're asking the City Council to start auditing the queries made against Flock's database, to disclose any data sharing agreements, and to take a vote to cancel the Flock safety contract” I looked more into this and he is 100% right Patents describe broader object detection, including tracking people and pedestrians, patents like US11416545B1. The system uses a centralized cloud database for nationwide queries Data goes to Flock’s private cloud, AWS-based, encrypted. Nationwide lookup is common, 75%+ of customers are enrolled enabling cross-jurisdictional searches. Residents have no direct public records access to the corporate servers. This creates a mass surveillance network feeding a private company’s infrastructure If you ask me this is laying the infrastructure for a mass surveillance network in America. We are being lied to. Cancel all contracts nationwide

Flock Safety: Is America Building a “Pre-Crime” Surveillance State? | Free the Money Ep. 39 Are we moving toward a “pre-crime” surveillance state where authorities can track your movements, build a profile of your behavior, and potentially decide you’re suspicious before you’ve even committed a crime? Jason Bassler, co-founder of the Free Thought Project, joins me to expose Flock and the rapidly expanding surveillance infrastructure being built across America. We break down how Flock’s automated license plate readers (ALPRs) can track far more than just a license plate, creating a “digital fingerprint” of your vehicle and logging your daily movements. Jason also discusses documented cases of police abusing ALPRs, innocent people being wrongfully stopped or held at gunpoint, and Flock data being accessed beyond local police. He says ICE, the ATF, FBI, and DHS have accessed Flock data that cities never approved. Key points we cover: -Flock Safety’s nationwide network of ALPR cameras and its expanding drone technology -Why ALPRs account for less than 1% of crime clearance in many departments—meaning roughly 99% of the surveillance collected is on innocent people -Motorola Signal Trace technology that can detect wireless signals from phones, Bluetooth devices, AirPods, and wearables -The growing push for age verification and digital ID across the internet -Why taxpayers could be spending roughly $360 million per year on Flock cameras -The Fourth Amendment questions surrounding mass location tracking -Why financial privacy and private digital money matter in an increasingly surveilled world -How communities are fighting back through FOIA requests, city councils, and projects like DeFlock Remember to subscribe and hit the bell “🔔” icon to get notifications.

Last night the Oakland County Board of Commissioners approved a contract with Flock Safety for drones to respond to police service calls. There was immense public backlash over this decision, but before the board could hear the public’s grievances, they removed the first public comment period. This only left one public comment at the end AFTER votes had taken place. Commissioner Powell made the motion to remove the public comment and Chair Woodward refused to do a roll call vote to confirm there was a sufficient number of votes for this change. Originally the Flock contract was for a free trial period until December and the county would be charged 2.5 million for two years if they did not opt out. This item received less than three minutes of consideration in committee and the sheriff’s office assured commissioners that the public’s data would be protected. However, that was no where in Flock’s contract. Commissioner Bob Hoffman offered an amendment to the item to only allow for the trial period without an automatic renewal, ensuring the data is owned by Oakland County Sheriff and not Flock, and the drones can only be used for calls for service or officer generated. The amendment was approved and the pilot contract was approved. This resulted in outbursts throughout the meeting and eventually a 3.5 hour public comment period at the end. Residents often spoke of the invasion of privacy, concerns about hacking the Flock system, and fear of constant surveillance. The meeting started 45 minutes late and lasted to almost midnight.

🚨 EXPOSED: What the Flock is going on?! This is The Most Unhinged Surveillance Warning video You Will see All Year 🚨 A man fully painted as the Joker sits in his car and delivers a WILD rant about the exact laser YOU Must Never point at Flock Safety cameras. Flock runs a massive private network of license plate readers that photograph every vehicle, log the plate, time, location, and vehicle details. All that data feeds into searchable databases for police and subscribers nationwide. It tracks movements of millions of Americans every day with minimal oversight and has already sparked privacy lawsuits and city shutdowns in multiple places. The Joker guy dramatically warns against a powerful green laser in the 490 to 570 nanometer range above one thousand milliwatts. In technical reality such lasers can overwhelm and damage camera sensors by saturating them with intense light. Anything claiming megawatts is absurd theater because that power level belongs in industrial or military systems not pocket devices. Pointing lasers at surveillance gear can lead to felony charges for tampering or vandalism. Shockingly this appears to be the same person whose own robbery was solved using Flock camera footage... The irony is off the charts. Now answer these questions honestly... Do these cameras protect public safety or do they create warrantless mass tracking of every driver in America? Would you ever test a laser on one of these systems if it recorded your movements without permission? How powerful does a laser actually need to be to reliably blind these cameras and what are the permanent eye damage risks to the user? Have Flock cameras appeared near your home or commute and does knowing they watch you change how you drive? Is this Joker video hilarious performance art or a sign of growing public revolt against constant surveillance? What happens to society if thousands of people start countering these cameras with cheap tech anyone can buy online? Should private companies like Flock be allowed to build national vehicle tracking networks at all? Why do some cities keep installing them despite the privacy backlash and data breach risks? Is interfering with surveillance ever justified self defense or is it always criminal? The video exposes more than it intends. Watch it. Reply with your real take. The discussion starts here. Let me know what you think, and SHARE THIS so that others may too. And if you're not already following Noah B. Price... What the heck are you doing?!

WOAH 🚨 Texas State Police purchased new vehicles that have surveillance systems that will READ YOUR PHONE as you’re driving down the highway Phones will soon be monitored. “Texas State Police recently bought vehicles equipped with technology that can intercept mobile phone data” The Texas Department of Public Safety approved an emergency $4,487,500 purchase of four 2026 Chevrolet Tahoe Police Pursuit Vehicles loaded with Cognyte FalcoNet gear. Only $600,000 of that was for the trucks themselves. The rest bought the surveillance systems Purchase order included: - Four FalcoNet core systems: $2.85 million - 5G perpetual licenses: $280,000 - Backpack-portable units so it can leave the vehicle - Antenna kits, amplifiers and mounting hardware Once connected, the system pulls identifying phone information like your IMSI, IMEI and location data. 3 system can be operational in about 3 minutes and process THOUSANDS of devices per minute (Holy sh*t) The surveillance state is expanding in America and Texas seeks to be leading the way “I'm in Houston, the largest city in Texas, where authorities are quietly building a web of cameras, drones, sensors and AI systems” - The cameras at some businesses like gas stations are required by law in Texas and police can request the footage - Roads are getting a new AI traffic camera system - Houston scrapped its old gunshot detection system after opposition, but it's approved a new one which can detect gunshots, cars screeching and glass breaking - Drones are also being used. Police used them during the World Cup, but won't say how many they have now “And is my phone being monitored? Texas State Police recently bought vehicles equipped with technology that can intercept mobile phone data… and the most controversial tool right now, Flock license plate readers. Officials here won't say how many they have or where they are, but there's at least 3,800 in the county alone” The police vehicles equipped with this new surveillance system will look like ordinary state police Tahoes. Antennas are concealed behind a raised false roof
