On August 19, a costumed Darth Vader spoke at the Public Safety and Livable Neighborhoods Committee, urging continued use of Flock automated license plate readers to track ‘rebel scum’ from playgrounds to pools.
“The emperor is a fan of Flock, and we must continue utilizing Flock technologies so that we can follow and surveil the rebel scum,”

Hatred of Flock seems to be something that the right and left mostly agree on, albeit for very different reasons.
The Civil Rights Lawyer
When the Columbine Valley Police Department (Colorado), using their dystopian flock surveillance system, saw a green Rivian truck driving down the same street, in the same town, 20 times over the course of a month, they became suspicious. But even more suspicious than that, the driver of the Rivian truck was a woman with blonde hair...
So when a $25 package went missing from a porch in that neighborhood that the blonde bandit was driving her 70 thousand dollar truck through on a daily basis, it obviously must have been her. At that point the government did what any good dystopian government agency would do, they sent a rude, bald member of their goon squad to the woman’s front door to lie to her; gaslight her; and threaten her.

Reason
“Florida woman spent 7 months in legal hell after cops used Flock surveillance to ID the wrong car.”

There is a middle ground.
Middle ground is Both sides do not want cops having the ability to do this.
The ‘middle ground’ is to prosecute any police officer who abuses this technology. Otherwise you’re throwing the baby out with the wash.
The flock cams are a pathway to many abilities that some consider to be unnatural. -Sheev Palpatine
