    Thx for the explanation but… Who is financing all of this? I mean, the infrastructure alone, that can’t be cheap. Is it out of Flock’s own funds? Did the authorities ask for these to be installed? Don’t you need some kind of paperwork to install these? Idk, nevermind who / where they’re tracking… The data they track is a huge breach of privacy, don’t the US have any laws against that, wtf?!

      its your local govt, if not trump is doing it nationally. theres a reason cities are not giving pushback at all on the AI datacenters, until recently. they want to monitor people potentially threatening thier political elected positions.

      Government at all levels. Local government puts them around parks to stalk children, state government has them all over the highways, the bigger city governments have them at every traffic light, the federal government has them god knows where.

      That’s the scary part. We have no idea how deep the federal government is running this system and we don’t know if its combined with satellite imagery.

      It very likely is though. This country has become an enemy to its own people.
