It turns out that the gander is not actually super keen on what's good for the goose.

I’d rather street criminals run rampant than have whatever it is we have now

One of [the officers] took the time to specifically mention how scary it would be for them

Lol. Absolute clowns.

I thought there wasn't a reasonable expectation of privacy when in public though??? Thats how they've been justifying Flock so far.

One of [the officers] took the time to specifically mention how scary it would be for them, because people would be able to find out where they lived, when they got on their shift and what they were doing throughout the day, and that that type of powerful information could put them personally at risk [from] any bad apples that might want to track them down.

Edit: Also, these dingbats do realize that anyone with the money to pay for it can already set up Flock cameras and access the data, right?

Anyone with any amount of tech knowledge or tutorial following can get into THE flock camera system.

Maybe the officer should make better fashion choices
