Flock is the most late-stage American capitalism spin on 1984. It’s not the government who puts up cameras to keep an eye on the public; it’s a for-profit company who charges the gov't for their services, and works with other massive for-profit companies to convince people to put up their own cameras to spy on themselves and their neighbors.
Every time I tell someone about Flock, I feel like a conspiracy theorist except it’s true, and they’re not hiding it.
