Most don't know how to read the Scriptures, because if they did, they would understand that the collection of misfits in Canaan(or "Palestine") that calls themselves "Israel", are NOT the Hebrews of the Texts. That most believe they are, demonstrates that they are a Member of the Congregation of the Dead(spiritually). The Oxymoronic Judeo-Christian Godspel, has done it's work very well. Hopeless Cultists, calling themselves "Christian", acting like Satan(which simply means "Accuser") Praying to dead gods, instead of to Yahweh Elohim. Sad, very sad. Is it moral for you to forcibly rob your neighbors, to pay for things you think society should do? How many "people" "voting" for such immorality, makes it moral?? Think on that, eh? And when you pathetically agree to "Vote" for a "ruling class", can you truly be surprised when their immorality spills over onto you??? GROW UP. Reflect on this: Voting IS Praying to a spiritually dead god, Government. We are praying for it's blessings upon Our just causes, are We not?? All organized "Religion" is just another mental Prison. Government and Religion, are the "Gifts" granted unto this World, by the Light-Bringer. His other name, "Satan", which simply means "the Accuser", is carried by all, who join the Congregation of the Spiritually Dead, and pick their "side"; whether Communist vs Capitalist, Catholic vs Baptist, Left vs Right, Red vs Blue, Muslim vs Jew. These "factions" ACCUSE each the other, of trying to bring about Chaos. Behaviour that is as Satanic as the Day is Long, which causes Those who were brought to Earth most recently(roughly 7600 years now), to abandon Their Mission of Deliverance of this World, from these two "Gifts" of Satan, the Devil, "Lucifer". Think on it just a moment... Do not Governments facilitate the Mass murder, mass theft, and rape of this world's resources?? Do not Religions, tell their adherents that all other religions are missing the Truth? Accusers All, meant to Keep the Populace of this blood-soaked, mud-covered bar-magnet of a planet, DIVIDED AND FALLEN. Keep Reflecting, Little Flock. The number of the Mark of the Beast is 666, which actually breaks into 6x60x600. 216,000. Every hominid has 144.000 genetic expressions in their DNA; 72K from the male progenitor, and 72K from the female progenitor. This "mRNA" "Vaccine" CAN change your 144K to 216,000, by splicing a third set of genetic expressions into your DNA... Sorry folks. CRISPR technology, forbidden Fruits yet again, being "eaten".

My understanding of the flock camera system is that it is not only fixed in place police cameras, but also fleet vehicle cameras on FedEx and UPS trucks, as well as private surveillance cameras, which all feed into the system.

[@michaellowe3665]

I have the opposite remedy for this issue. We need a law that requires all taxpayer funded cameras that are not located in secure environments to provide their footage and data to the public. When everyone can see this data and use it to track government employees and politicians, they won't want these cameras anymore.

[@Ginger-g8j]

Must be no exceptions try using the public records act in the state of California. They have listed so many exemptions and they can exempt anything for any reason I dare you to try to get everything anywhere you get redacted stuff that is just a piece of paper that got black all over itfor now should be in court and they should be running and live streamed 24 seven no exceptions. That’s the problem no exceptions.

[@michaellowe3665]

@Ginger-g8j I agree with that. It must be absolute. In addition, if the camera operators have to supply their data to everyone, they can't monetize it, so they have no incentive to put up the cameras.

[@freedomthinker3041]

Analytics allows you to track things within a camera network. They can track you from point to point. The police don't have to chase you, they will just show up where you end up, and have a video of everywhere you entered a camera's view. Systems with Analytics can also be connected to FLOCK.

@@reneesimerale it is a book written in 1949, by Eric Blair from the UK, under the pseudonym George Orwell. They also made a movie version. It surprises me when people don't know that story.

[@lynb2039]

@@SgtJoeSmith whoa back sergeant. Theres caveats. In general, law enforcement can search through trash left out for collection without a warrant (New York State), however: -trash at curb Courts have ruled that people don't have a reasonable expectation of privacy in their trash once it's been put out for collection. This is because the trash is considered "abandoned" and in "public view". -Trash in curtilage Police can't search trash that's still in the curtilage, or surrounding area, of your home. This includes trash bins kept behind an enclosure or right next to your house (Source: AI, Big G)

No private entity should ever, ever, be allowed to surveil, period, no matter the excuses.

My first thought is that the cameras can track you from point A, to point B, to point C, but AI can also determine the time from one point to another. If you exceed a normal time allotment between point B and C, and the police know of a bank robbery somewhere in the point B to C area that can make you a suspect due to the fact that you must have stopped somewhere along the way and what were you doing?
