You can’t even acknowledge that Flock sends police to people’s houses as a business model and lets them be stalked by law enforcement?

Facebook’s business model is also bad, but every time I mention the company the post is about, you change goalposts. Facebook is optional.

Flock can’t be opted out of and has to be actively protested. You have to voice your concern at town hall to stop Flock.
