Flock CEO: If you want a crime-free society, be ready to give up your privacy

cool. I don't want a crime-free society. It's not that I want crime, it's that at a certain point I'd rather allocate government attention/money/time at issues other than crime because the benefit to that other thing is greater than getting crime asymptotically closer to 0.

“ Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety.”

- Benjamin Franklin

Says who hides his house on google map.

Most common crime is wage theft, don't see how they are going to do anything about that.

Wait, we’ve already given away our privacy. Where’s our crime free society?

So much stupidity from people who make every choice binary.

Well there are many issues and that is ownership and who gets to see the data and who gets to delete the data. If it is ever going to work, the ownership has to be public and not private. The videos should be impossible to delete.. The camera spread should be the same everywhere and would collect data non-selectively and only in public spaces. The data could only become visible to viewers only if certain criteria's are met and not continuous.

Or just keep the people in jail who are committing most of the crime. When someone has been arrested a dozen times, we don’t need cameras tracking them to keep people safe, we need that person removed from polite society.

Flock is a poor solution to a failure of the judicial system.

Infringing on 4th amendment rights sounds like a crime to me.

Somehow "Minority Raport" was about crime... And stupidity build into oversight system.

And under eg. communism where oversight is balooned to society self-harm you still have crime. And "bribery" is alias for communism and other dictatorships.

So, it is just better to give up on Flock spy[hard]ware.

I'll take freedom and the cons that come with it. I doubt very much that crime-free is even possible, especially the oligarchy crimes

He’s right, the countries that have lowest crime rates have flock cameras everywhere and zero privacy, this is the way /s
