STOP FLOCK. STOP AI MASS SURVEILLANCE.
Totalitarianism is when a government or another entity with overwhelming power seeks to know, control and influence everything you do, say and even think. I fear very much that if we don't act aggressively, that is where we’re heading.
You may not know it, but you may already be being tracked by artificial intelligence.
Flock, a surveillance company backed by Big Tech oligarchs like Marc Andreessen and Peter Thiel, has installed more than 120,000 AI-powered surveillance cameras across America.
These AI cameras scan and record 20 BILLION vehicles every month across more than 6,000 communities.
What does that mean for you? It means that if Flock is in your community, every time you leave your house, a Flock camera records and tracks you.
If you are dropping your kids off at school, Flock knows.
If you are going to a doctor, Flock knows.
If you are going out on a date, Flock knows.
And that’s not all.
Newer Flock cameras do not just record vehicles. They record people. Flock’s AI system can combine images of you and your vehicle with databases of phone numbers, relatives and court records to find out who you are, where you're going and why.
In my view, this raises some very fundamental questions. Do we want to live in an America where AI companies like Flock can work with the government to track our every movement? Do we want to live in an America where our privacy rights and civil liberties — enshrined in the Constitution — are traded away so that AI oligarchs can collect more information, and increase their profits even more?
The answer must be NO. We cannot allow America to become a surveillance state where a handful of AI oligarchs profit by giving the government the power to track our every movement.
We must come together to stop Flock and AI mass surveillance. That is why I will soon be introducing legislation to do just that.
JUST IN: Man dressed as Darth Vader appears before San Diego City Council to defend its 550+ Flock cameras — declaring, “This is what the emperor needs.”
Flock cameras tracking your every move.
CBDC—coming soon.
Warrantless spying via FISA.

Our Founding Fathers would be disgusted by the surveillance state operating in America today.
One month after starting the war in Iran, this is the statement of the President of the United States on Easter Sunday.
These are the ravings of a dangerous and mentally unbalanced individual. Congress has got to act NOW. End this war.
Sorry for the delay in commenting. I was getting prepared to go on CBS Sports to talk Ryan Silverfield and Arkansas, but they decided Florida and Auburn hires were way more interesting and decided last minute not to have me on. I can't say I blame them. I'd bump me too.
This is nothing against Ryan Silverfield. He wants the Arkansas head coaching job. Glad someone does... But it just shows how disconnected Arkansas is with their own fanbase.
There is literally not one single Hog fan I have seen who has expressed excitement on a day everyone was looking forward to since this started. I see angry, apathetic, sad, disbelief and laughter as a means of coping.
But should it be a surprise? As I have said many times, as you all good and well know, Arkansas has the worst football program in the SEC. So these are the kinds of decisions you get.
Arkansas needed to make a hire fans could rally behind, a hire that would lead to a groundswell of support, and this just is not what anybody had in mind. #wps
You can't explain this collapse by using a "lack of NIL" excuse. Arkansas came closer to beating Ole Miss in Oxford than top 5 LSU. This team quit after that. That's on the head coach AND the AD. The people at the top (BOT) need to step in.
Accountability should be held all the way at the top with Mr. “We aren’t set up to succeed” Hunter Yurachek himself. Why aren’t we set up to succeed @HunterYurachek ? Who is responsible for that? Pathetic leadership directly results in pathetic results like today @TreyBiddy
