Many police are defending Flock cameras & other AI tools saying, “It makes our job easier.”
News flash: Your job isn’t supposed to be EASY! It’s supposed to be restrained, heavy, and encumbered by the burden of proof, probable cause, the presumption of innocence, and always subject to OUR civil liberties!!!
A free society is not about making things convenient for the state, it’s about protecting the individual FROM the state. So many people have forgotten this.
We have a system where working Americans have to get drug tests, background checks, company vehicles that monitor everything down to eye movement just to make a living that’s partially confiscated and given to people who live like they’re in Grand Theft Auto.
Unsustainable.
