Flock CEO Garrett Langley is now in full damage control mode. The narrative he’s pushing: that it’s all a big misunderstanding. In a new interview, he told Bloomberg that “we’re not Big Brother”

Well they may not want the mantle of "Big Brother," but they are 100% a part of the Big Brother system of surveillance that's currently tracking all of us. Patriot Act says that the government has next to unlimited surveillance authority during a declared emergency, so every president since then has been re-upping that "National Emergency" so that the surveillance machine can keep on chugging. There is no indication that it will ever stop. The pretense of us operating under "Threat level Orange" for over 2 and a half decades is ridiculous.

Also, the Flock system is a really stupid part of Big Brother. In one instance, it misread license plate numbers an astonishing 71% of the time.
