This police state surveillance apparatus is really quite embarrassing if they have to appeal to the public instead of using the very thing designed for total surveillance that was involved in the incident.

announcing... Flock's new camera security system (another camera pointed at the first camera to watch for people breaking it)

[-] fonix232@fedia.io 9 points 3 weeks ago

okay, but then who watches the public watching flock camera watcher flock cameras?

[-] NocturnalMorning@lemmy.world 9 points 3 weeks ago

Another flock camera of course

But then who watches the flock camera looking at the flock canera looking at the flock camera?

[-] fonix232@fedia.io 7 points 3 weeks ago

It's flock cameras all the way down.

VERY lucrative contract. Infinite curve. Infinite money glitch.

[-] burido@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago

Then a third camera to keep an eye on the second one!

[-] ChickenLadyLovesLife@lemmy.world 3 points 3 weeks ago

They only have to appeal to the public to provide cover for what they can really do. They'll just search men in the area whose phones weren't being used or moved during this incident (assuming the guy was smart enough to not bring his phone with him, who knows) and filter by men who make anti-surveillance posts on social media and match the limited physical description available here. Probably wouldn't be more than a few hits that match.

[-] myster0n@feddit.nl 79 points 3 weeks ago

Just look at that physique: that's clearly Donald Trump!

[-] Ioughttamow@fedia.io 21 points 3 weeks ago

What!? Clearly that’s John Barron

[-] Etterra@discuss.online 5 points 3 weeks ago

And here I thought it was Alex Jones.

[-] Thebeardedsinglemalt@lemmy.world 6 points 3 weeks ago

No way, definitely Mike Lindell!

[-] FreddiesLantern@leminal.space 5 points 3 weeks ago

That's not the real Alex Jones you're thinking of. The real one popped like a balloon.

[-] tehWrapper@lemmy.world 64 points 3 weeks ago

Remember kids. When you see someone damage a flock camera.. no you didn't..

[-] OnyxRex@lemmy.dbzer0.com 19 points 3 weeks ago

I'm blind in both eyes. I can't even see this comment.

[-] Thebeardedsinglemalt@lemmy.world 7 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

I'm not blind, I imbibed an excessive amount of whatever thc adjacent substance is legal in my state so my memory is not accurate nor admissable

[-] Aneb@lemmy.world 3 points 3 weeks ago

Here's your F bud. Smoke some real bud soon! I'm smoking my pen rn for you.

Also its not legal, just medical, in my state. I have a friend who picks up from dispensaries for me, most people have a hook up.

[-] BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.today 6 points 3 weeks ago

What Flock camera? There wasn't a Flock camera there.

[-] Sharkticon@lemmy.zip 40 points 3 weeks ago

Looks like Stephan Miller to me.

Slender body, sneaky as fuck, that's obviousl Mark Zuckerberg.

[-] ChickenLadyLovesLife@lemmy.world 3 points 3 weeks ago

Nah, that guy looks over 5' tall.

[-] DarrinBrunner@lemmy.world 31 points 3 weeks ago

Based hero.

[-] SpacePanda@mander.xyz 22 points 3 weeks ago
[-] Lydia_K@lemmy.world 8 points 3 weeks ago

He was with me the entire time

[-] Danarchy 19 points 3 weeks ago

Idk but he can hold me in his beatlejuice arms while the world burns down around us

[-] Tetragrade@leminal.space 16 points 3 weeks ago

That guy fumbled hard by wearing distinctive clothing, which can potentially be recovered by law enforcement and presented as evidence in a trial. I hope any future Flock vandals reading this do the same thing so they get caught.

[-] Crackhappy@lemmy.world 2 points 3 weeks ago

Easy problem to solve with a lighter and gasoline.

[-] funkreddit@lemmy.zip 16 points 3 weeks ago

That’s fuking Putin all the way!!

[-] LovableSidekick@lemmy.world 15 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

Can confirm, that's Ben Dog alright. In fact I overheard him and Kariv Levin at Coachella talking about how much they both hate Flock cameras. I remember Netanyahu laughed and said, "Dude they're totally easy to fuck up!"

[-] Maeve@kbin.earth 13 points 3 weeks ago

Hope he burned the shoes and striped shirt.

[-] Malyca@lemmy.zip 1 points 2 weeks ago

If he considered obscuring his face, he thought of other shit

[-] shweddy@lemmy.world 13 points 3 weeks ago
[-] Leather@lemmy.world 9 points 3 weeks ago

Rafael Edward Cruz, remember his sacred belief in using your birth name only. Respect his choices!

[-] NocturnalMorning@lemmy.world 8 points 3 weeks ago

All I see is a side walk

[-] solidheron@sh.itjust.works 7 points 3 weeks ago

Damn if only they had a picture. I'm curious who's doing a public service

[-] caboose2006@lemmy.world 7 points 3 weeks ago

I am commenting this from now on on all "we're looking for flock bandit" posts

[-] Kazel@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 points 3 weeks ago

can confirm

[-] inmate_p01135809@lemmy.world 6 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

I guess I'm going to die beating this dead horse, but Flock cameras are just regular video security cameras and feed back to a cloud AI platform. If you go to their homepage right this minute you will see that not one single example of their camera views shows a license plate read, but several do show the platform identifying people instead.

EDIT: I think I am giving the wrong impression. These are domestic surveillance tools and it's my belief these should be considered unconstitutional. I'm merely stating that these are not ONLY license plate readers (LPR's), they are full cameras.

[-] JackiesFridge@lemmy.world 9 points 3 weeks ago

Are not the number plate IDs just a stepping stone to tracking people? So apart from letting us know how correct you are, who cares? This is mass surveillance. We are aware. It’s why we’re in this group.

[-] inmate_p01135809@lemmy.world 8 points 3 weeks ago

Yes. These can read license plates and identify people. They are mass surveillance devices and store their data in a massive centralized system.

[-] Anarki_@lemmy.blahaj.zone 5 points 3 weeks ago

Me when I'm defending people who wouldn't even spit on me if I was on fire.

[-] VelvetPinkOtter123@lemmy.world 5 points 3 weeks ago

Holy Shit it's Donald Trump!

[-] Malyca@lemmy.zip 3 points 2 weeks ago

We can put on masks too

[-] commiunism@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 3 weeks ago

Didn't know that big man Ben N was an anarchist, that explains a lot!

[-] Widdershins@lemmy.world 2 points 3 weeks ago

I don't know who specifically but that's one of the kids from the farm on the other side of the fence in my backyard.

Flippant Anarchism. A lighter take on social criticism with the aim of agitation.

Post humorous takes on capitalism and the states which prop it up. Memes, shitposting, screenshots of humorous good takes, discussions making fun of some reactionary online, it all works.

This community is anarchist-flavored. Reactionary takes won't be tolerated.

Don't take yourselves too seriously. Serious posts go to !anarchism@lemmy.dbzer0.com

Rules


  1. If you post images with text, endeavour to provide the alt-text

  2. If the image is a crosspost from an OP, Provide the source.

  3. Absolutely no right-wing jokes. This includes "Anarcho"-Capitalist concepts.

  4. Absolutely no redfash jokes. This includes anything that props up the capitalist ruling classes pretending to be communists.

  5. No bigotry whatsoever. See instance rules.

  6. This is an anarchist comm. You don't have to be an anarchist to post, but you should at least understand what anarchism actually is. We're not here to educate you.

  7. No shaming people for being anti-electoralism. This should be obvious from the above point but apparently we need to make it obvious to the turbolibs who can't control themselves. You have the rest of lemmy to moralize.
