Flock Cameras Have a People-Love-Smashing-Them Problem

Flock Cameras Have a People-Love-Smashing-Them Problem

Tech-news , ,

Flock cameras have become such attractive targets for destruction that some police have become protective of information about where they’re mounted. A local news story Friday in Louisville, Kentucky detailed the Louisville police’s effort to keep the locations secret.

The story also mentions that when the locations of some of the cameras were released, they were almost immediately destroyed.

On Saturday, Brian Merchant of the tech criticism newsletter Blood in the Machine catalogued a wider trend regarding Flock, the company famous for its networked, AI-enhanced, solar-powered license plate readers, video cameras, gunshot detectors, and “drone as first responder” tech: vandalism against Flock equipment is happening all over the country, seemingly without coordination.

Most recently, on February 16 in La Mesa, California, a city in the San Diego metro area, a local news outlet reported two destroyed Flock cameras—one smashed, the other sabotaged.

But most entertainingly (that is if you’re the kind of sicko who is entertained by acts of vandalism) in October of last year in Eugene and Springfield, Oregon, six Flock cameras were apparently cut down from poles and destroyed. A sticker with the note, “Hahaha get wrecked ya surveilling f***s” was applied to one of the poles below the spot where it was cut.

In and around Suffolk, Virginia, last December, an arrest was made after 13 cameras were destroyed. 41-year-old Jefferey S. Sovern, acknowledged, according to the local news, that “he used vice grips to help him disassemble the two-piece mounting poles,”  and that he had kept things like wires, batteries and solar panels from the camera assemblies.

Sovern started a gofundme, where he wrote: “I appreciate a quiet life and am not looking forward to this process, but I will take the silver lining that this can be a catalyst in a bigger movement to roll-back intrusive surveillance.” He also links to an activist site called deflock.org.

Last month in Lisbon, Connecticut, police said they were investigating a destroyed Flock camera.

The Sheriff’s department in Greenview, Illinois said last month that two of its Flock cameras were cut down and destroyed.

Some other interesting facts about Flock: Its CEO Garrett Langley was 38 as of last September, and has indicated that he believes sufficiently widespread use of his mass surveillance technology, along with the deployment of his other ideas, can eliminate all crime in America. He has all sorts of ideas (Forgive people’s student debt if they become cops, for instance) and talked all about them two months ago on the YouTube channel of the VC firm Andreessen Horowitz. Andreessen Horowitz, by the way, has invested $275 million in Flock.

But if you’ve heard only one thing about Flock lately, it probably has something to do with Ring’s eerie Super Bowl commercial involving its since-aborted partnership with Flock.

The intention behind the ad, in which Ring doorbell cameras are integrated into Flock’s law enforcement-affiliated footage-sharing system, seems to have been to sell people on the idea that mass surveillance in their neighborhoods is good because it will help more lost pets get found. People and politicians evidently disagreed, and a fierce backlash ensued. The relationship between Flock and Amazon-owned Ring ruptured in short order.

When reached for comment, Holly Beilin, chief of staff to Flock’s chief communications officer provided six links to news stories and the following statement:

“We respect and value concerns and feedback raised about our technology, and building trust is important to us. We are regularly on the ground in communities across the country answering questions and providing education on what our technology does and does not do.”

A group of protesters from an organization called Everyone Hates Elon have stuck it to Jeff Bezos by planting little fake pee bottles in the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York in the days before Monday’s Met Gala. Monday, at the event itself, there were more traditional protesters as well.

According to Fox News, Jeff Bezos avoided the red carpet on Monday and quietly went inside the event via some other entrance.

The explanation for the pee bottles, according to a statement posted on Instagram is that, “Jeff Bezos’s company Amazon is literally being sued for forcing workers to urinate in bottles.” There is indeed a proposed class action suit in Colorado over alleged “work policies that require its delivery drivers in Colorado to urinate in bottles in the back of delivery vans, defecate in bags, and, in many cases, to restrain themselves from using the bathroom at risk of serious health consequences.” When the suit was announced in 2023, Amazon declined to comment on the specifics.

 

The Met Gala, like the Oscars, started as a dinner for cultural elites, and then got out of hand. Now you can spark an international incident by not knowing who someone is at the Met Gala, and the House Ethics committee will investigate a dress someone wears there.

And now Jeff Bezos, the centibillionaire Amazon founder, and his wife Lauren Sanchez pay millions of dollars to be associated with the Gala—this year becoming the primary donors and honorary co-chairs of the event.

That’s unpleasant for anyone who reasonably does not care for Amazon’s gruesome alleged treatment of workers and contractors—including sometimes allegedly not allowing adequate time to pee in actual bathrooms. It’s something Amazon has denied, but then it ended up apologizing for the denial.

A good way to draw attention to this might be to protest at one of Amazon’s many physical locations, which people sometimes do. Another way would be to stage a funny protest in the lead-up to the Bezos-affiliated Met Gala, which, in addition to being a gala is also a fundraising event for the arts—which gives it a convenient, but real, veneer of kindness.

The fake pee bottles have a message on them that says “Boycott the Bezos Met Gala,” which everyone I know is doing whether they want to or not since they just don’t have the $100,000 it costs to get in. A smaller note at the bottom of the label says “Relax, it’s just water and food coloring.”

The pee bottle stunt is cute, but seems like it was mainly just annoying for people who work at the museum. Still, the protesters got their message out, and they may have successfully put Bezos off of making a red carpet entrance. Plus it would be hard to do a funny stunt protest every time Jeff Bezos has a party on the largest sailing yacht in the world, which he owns, and which is so big it has its own little side-yacht. Though there were fresh rumors going around in the tabloids Monday that he wants to sell that because it attracts too much attention. Maybe someone planted pee bottles in that too.

White House officials are exploring official government oversight of new AI models, according to the New York Times.

U.S. officials, speaking on the condition of anonymity, told the publication that the Trump administration is forming an AI working group composed of tech leaders and government representatives. The group will be tasked with outlining potential oversight procedures for new models launching to market, including formal review processes, the Times reported.

The proposed plans were discussed at a White House meeting last week with representatives from Anthropic, Google, and OpenAI.

Potentially influenced by regulatory processes announced by UK regulators, which relegate AI oversight to relevant government bodies, the working group would also determine which U.S. agencies would be tasked with oversight. Some officials have suggested the National Security Agency (NSA), the White House Office of the National Cyber Director, and the director of national intelligence take the lead, while others have even suggested revitalizing the Biden-era Center for A.I. Standards and Innovation, according to the Times.

The administration has reversed its stance on AI regulation in recent months, despite announcing a federal AI action plan that pulled back on regulation of tech companies and threatened to reduce federal funding for states that impeded AI infrastructure efforts through regulation. Trump’s One Big Beautiful Bill also included limits on state governments’ AI regulation, originally proposing a 10-year moratorium on state action in favor of federal oversight.

Trump appointee and FCC chairman Brendan Carr has also advocated for a light-touch approach to AI regulation.
