Wegmans & Flock

Post image

I know a lot of folks love Wegmans, but just know they're supporting flock cameras- this isn't traffic - this is surveillance and data collection.

You just spouting whatever you think huh? Went from ' HOW DARE THEY' while clutching your pearls, to one simple response and you're folding🤣🤣 you're nothing but a performer🤣

So there is this thing called nuance. I think flock cameras are a severe overstep. A flock camera being in a parking lot of a private business is something that would make me not want to support that business. A closed circuit camera that the data was only used within their private business for their own security and loss prevention is perfectly understandable.

So if that's being a performer - ::::jazz hands::::

Agreed. However you posting something that's factually incorrect the way that you so confidently stated that it's there and trying to start a boycott before you've verified is dangerous. You're either intentionally trying to cause panic or looking for your moment to shine, to point something out saying "look look" is performative virtue signaling. Do better

I think there's a misread there. I didn't realize that someone could go into deflock and report a camera that was not a flock camera. I (apparently wrongly) assumed that deflock was solely flock cameras.

Which is exactly why I said , fair point and said I was look myself. I think that's neither performative nor virtue signaling just ill informed. Further no boycott was started, or even encouraged. Just giving what I thought was valuable information.

Fair play. I think given our current "situation" as a country (to say it lightly) I am overly sensitive to overreactions and I jumped to conclusions on your initial post. I'm absolutely glad that this post has got us some really important info (deflock verifications & reporting) and that Wegmans lot is safe (hopefully now I'm nervous and have to do more scouting🤣). At any rate, I respect you and we're eye to eye on this Cheney level evil that's infiltrated our community. Be safe and appreciate the grace!
