So they can film you but you can't film them? Double standard much?

I despise Flock. Have had plenty to say. But I suspect -this- was the reason, moreso than the filming the installation: > As Keefe began to shoot video, the installer saw him and immediately packed up his equipment and drove away, so Keefe also returned to his car and followed several cars behind, hoping to document the next stop. Not to say the installer wouldn't have anyway, but it's not inherently unreasonable to call 911 when someone is obviously following you.

FTA: > “I work with Flock Safety. And I called originally because I’m getting followed,” the installer can be heard telling a dispatcher in the recording of the call obtained by Atlanta News First Investigates. “I was getting harassed, pretty much. Taking videos and pictures. And now, the same vehicle that pulled over where I was working at has been following me.” …the irony

I like to ask people who are pro blanket surveillance if they’d be ok with the police putting an Air Tag in their car
