Those surveillance capitalist fascists can go flock themselves
Those sanctimonious FUCKS can go take a long walk off a short pier. Justice will be aggrieved until they all hang publicly.
I like to think if I was in a position to be working with data like that, that I could 'accidentally' forget to redact it one time and trigger a leak like this.
They publicly released that data at that point though through their own failures, fuck Flock for trying to suppress it.
That took longer than I expected.
Flock the Epstein files then lol
I've love to have private alpr's in my neighborhood. We've had mailbox thefts and people driving around breaking into cars, even had car stolen. These guys are changing their plates regularly, but it would be super cool to at least get a neighborhood wide alert if someone who's done done shit has rentered our neighborhood. I'm just not keen on giving that data to 3rd parties lock stock and barrel
Their quote very much sounds like it was written by Noem or one of the other orange stooges:
Flock told 404 Media in an email “That website that is doxxing cops during active investigations. Today, we're busy working with journalists to cover the fact that our technology was pivotal in cracking open the case that found the Brown university / MIT serial killer in New England. If you'd like to report the news that matters, we'd be happy to speak to you about bringing justice to victims instead of activists trying to let murderers go free.”
(Deny, attack, reverse victim and offender)
Pretty typical of this administration's malignant narcissism and the concomitant authoritarianism.

Millions of surveillance targets
Really makes you think. Can't help but wonder how many millions of crimes these guys are solving.
I don't think it's really an error. I think that's just a handy cover for the real message. You are being watched, you don't get privacy, and if any police or other group wants to follow you, then you will be followed.
Wait, you mean to tell me that the surveillance dragnet system was absused by snivelling, petty and corrupt bureacrats who actually don't give a fuck about any kind of equality becore the law?
Well I mean they should welcome this self induced negligent discharge of a leak, after all, they have nothing to hide.
also, reposting my comment in a thread last month about this:
in b4 haveibeenhaveibeenflocked.
they have a list of their current collection of 239 .csv files but sadly don’t appear to let you actually download them to query offline
they now have 519 sources, some of which are downloadable from muckrock but many aren't.
i still don't understand why this website isn't open source and open data, and i strongly recommend thinking carefully about it (eg, thinking about if you'd mind if the existence of your query becomes known to police and/or the public) before deciding if you want to type a given plate number in to it.
