Flock is in the doghouse, but don't hold your breath for privacy
Turns out your local PD is just window shopping for a new flavor of surveillance.
It seems like half the country is currently telling Flock to take a hike over privacy concerns. The streets are buzzing, and city councils are actually pulling the plug on those aggressive license plate readers.
But before anyone throws a parade for civil liberties, here is the kicker: the cops are just signing up with Flock's competitors instead. It is basically a game of musical chairs where every seat is rigged. Privacy experts are already pointing out that the replacement tech is often just as invasive, just with a different logo on the box.
The surveillance state is just rebranding its way into the neighborhood.
