Fuck you. Take my upvote.

There's ample reason to shit on AI, but generating a slop meme like this locally uses less resources than a gaming session.

Also as a side note, this particular image looks like a mix of AI and regular editing.

Typical. Corp does evil, people get wise to it and take action, politicians and advocacy groups like the ACLU call for some "adequate safety measures", and corp does damage control. The cameras stay up, the network expands, and a future OTA update rolls back whatever concessions the corp and cops made now after giving the frogs time boil.

Well I don't want "adequate safety measures". I don't care about the "balancing act" between surveillance police state tech and privacy that this article mentioned. There is no compromise. These cameras should not exist and anything less is unacceptable.

and removes the stupid catgirl.

Blasphemy! Someone fork the fork, call it AnUwUbis, and readd the catgirl.

The difference between a billion dollars and a trillion dollars is roughly a trillion dollars...

I'd rather donate $750 to Jellyfin than pay $750 to Plex for Lifetime.

Love that some megacorp can just make decisions like this that affects billions of people.

Really just feeling the fucking freedom. I hate everything.

They already scan every detail about the car other than the license plate (dents, scratches, color, bumper stickers, etc).

Patent US11416545B1 is for scanning humans.

Flock is insidious. Once the infrastructure is in place, all it takes is an update to turn them into something worse. Do some research, there's plenty of professional information and cases on the risks and "misuse" (working as intended) of these things. Good luck.

Good, fuck this panopticon dystopia shit.

Also, some guy sliced the entire pole and left a message:

hahaha get wrecked ya surveilling fucks

The idea that you're somehow not entitled to privacy based on the publicity of a space has got to be one of the most successful propaganda campaigns used to strip privacy against the will of people.

Fuck you, I want to take a walk and generally travel freely without being tracked by some fucking "Flock" or Ring camera, or uploaded unblurred to some randos Instagram where Meta and Clearview will train facial recognition and generative AI, or having my entire life story and biometric data collected at some airport.

Take me back to the thousands of years humanity existed without obscenely invasive tech.
