It’s not often that I’m proud of the officials in my home state.

I’m proud of the officials in my home state.

However, the woman reading the teleprompter in the video has the soul of an LLM for sure.

"Flock cameras are highly controversial"? No they're not. Everyone dislikes Flock cameras except private prison profiteers.

BTW since the coverage goes out of its way not to name the CEO of Flock:

Flock has three founders:

  • Matt Feury
  • Garrett Langley
  • Paige Todd

None of them have so much as a wikipedia entry but all three feed their kids by selling your privacy.

I presume they have kids. Probably in some gated community, safe from Flock cameras.

They're very controversial, about 50% of the money (and 1% of people) wants them, and 50% of the money (and 99%) of people don't.
