At what point do we stop voting for the people putting up the flock cameras, and start voting for those that have comprehensive plans to address real issues?
That would take people actually learning who they vote for past a letter next to their name. It would also take things in place to stop people from just saying things and swapping sides.
When was the last time you saw a politician with a comprehensive plan for anything at all? It’s political suicide to have an actual platform anymore. I think it should be illegal to run for office without one frankly.
Seems most people vote their feels or their chosen clan… Whoever they think they get along better with socially.
It seems few people seriously assess a politicians job qualification or work hisrory.
Heck, my SO just lets me do the work, but I refused to just let them copy my vote. I write up paragraph summaries for each candidate then a blurb explaining my choice. They can disagree if they want, it’s okay. I don’t look to see how they vote, or ask, but they basically tell me they trust me and just wanna copy me.
It’s honestly pretty upsetting.
And I bet one partner in most relationships just does the same, or votes party line, or just generally doesn’t give a hoot but votes anyway.
in conservative circles, the wife’s vote is often just a second vote for her husband’s choice.
In some states (like mine), they shove these laws allowing access into omnibus must pass bills, and since representatives cant vote down on them, you basically would have to vote everyone out. Better ideas is to show up at every city and county meeting, with your community members and make such noise about it, that they have to do something about it so they can’t keep hiding behind under the counter deals.
Where I live, it was not voted on. They just showed up one day. They did have a city council meeting to discuss it, but they had it during 4th of july week–when most people in this small town are on vacation. I don’t think that was an accident.
Make city councilmembers scared again
If you saw someone taking down a flock camera, no you didn’t.
And they didn’t see you help.
They were at my house all night anyway
I was actually having sex with them… If police want the video it’s $1500 a month, minimum sign up is 6 months
Halloween night will be wild this year.
A local guy just got caught taking down a decoy camera that the cops set up to get whoever had been cutting down cameras in the area.
So they caught him, but the mayor seemed irritated about the decoy operation, which she wasn’t aware of. She wondered who paid for the camera, but it turned out to be a 3D print that one of the cops did at home. Aloarently city council were already debating removing the cameras, and the mayor seems to be on the negative side.
Anyway, whenever the story comes on the news, I vocally declare my support for the guy, to anyone who happens to be in the room.
Fuck right off with this title.
It’s anger against the goddamn fascist fucks watching the cameras.
Flockjacks=heros
I’d smash.
One of the few things everyone seems to agree on.
Not just Americans. I’d love for this company to die before they go global.
I’m definitely cheering them on because I’m too chicken shit to do it myself.
You could go to city and county meetings and help get these things banned altogether. Legal and a much more effective way to do things.
I like that idea.
Then you should read @Kacerdias@pawb.social comment.
Practice your second amendment on a flock of cameras.
There’s one across the street that captures my home. I fantasize about taking it out in a number of creatively destructive methods.
You don’t need to destroy it. A black trash bag over the camera and/or solar panel and wrapped with tape will be sufficient.
No, because it still collects data from every wireless device in range.
Not when it doesn’t have power.
Green laser?
Maybe not here, but post the location to a group of antiflockers, suggest it’s pointing at a home and shouldn’t be, suggest maybe it should be removed.
You can stay pretty anonymous.
There are those of us who wouldn’t mind just quietly popping by a week later and taking care of that for ya.
If any are close by it certainly might get done.
There is a group in my town who is starting an open letter/petition to the city council to have them removed. I feel like that’s the safer and more lasting way to get them down here. The one pointing towards my home is right next to a school and any kind of tampering would be readily seen and fixed
Wait a second… What direction is the camera in relation to you? Is it any bit east of you?
What I am getting at is a concave mirror and the sun might be able to assist greatly with your privacy concerns… At least from the camera angle.
It could potentially work. My home is along a road that runs northeast to southwest. The facade of my home faces southeast towards the camera, which is on the opposite side of the road. the camera faces northeast. See DeFlock screenshot
Direct some of that ire at the employees who are supposed to work for We The People, but they did this to us, with sneaky means to avoid public knowledge, with our taxes. Seems against the alleged founding values.
Something is rotten,
They work for We The People,
But lie to us all
