Flock Cameras, Go 'Flock' Yourself
We are building an East Berlin-Style, Surveillance State in America, one camera at a time, and your city council is paying for it with YOUR money.

It’s February in the Florida Keys and a Monroe County sheriff’s deputy named Lamar Roman is doing 70 on a two-lane bridge highway, passing a dump truck in a no-passing zone, then another, then swinging clear across the double yellow so a white pickup has to yank itself off the road to keep a family from dying on US 1. Lights on. Sirens on. Somewhere ahead is the fugitive he’s burning county gas to catch.

A 27-year-old actress he wanted to sleep with…

That’s the emergency?
He’d met her weeks earlier working security on the set of Bad Monkey, the Vince Vaughn show. She got off the extras bus, he whistled at her, and he kept circling all day until other extras were physically pulling her away from him. She said she had a boyfriend. His answer, preserved in his own arrest report, was “I need your name and number just in case I pull you over some day.”

She took it as a creepy joke. It was a project plan. He put her car on a camera watch list, and when the network spotted her weeks later, he nearly killed a truckload of strangers to run her down, pulled her over for nothing, and asked why she hadn’t followed him back on Instagram. “I told you I’d find you and pull you over.” Never logged the stop. He knew it was worth hiding.

Now here’s where you expect me to say the system failed. The system did not fail. Cameras photographed her car, a database served up her location, and a man with power used it on someone who couldn’t say no. That IS the system. Everything else is the sales brochure.

The network is called Flock, and it photographed you this week. So before we go one step further, you deserve to know exactly how big the thing that’s watching you actually is.

NSA Whistleblower Thomas Drake Warns: Mass Surveillance of Americans Persists and Evolves

In a July 2026 interview on the independent platform Redacted, longtime NSA whistleblower Thomas Drake delivered a sobering message: the infrastructure for mass surveillance of Americans, built in the aftermath of 9/11, has not been dismantled. It has adapted, decentralized, and embedded itself into everyday technology — from networks of AI-powered license plate readers to data broker ecosystems and algorithmic analysis. Drake, who raised internal alarms about post-9/11 warrantless programs and paid a heavy personal price, argued that the result is a creeping “privacide” that chills speech, maps associations, and risks turning the tools of security into instruments of control.

Quote:
BOULDER, Colo. — Two Boulder residents have filed a class-action lawsuit against the Boulder Police Department, claiming the city’s network of 31 Flock Safety automatic license plate reader (ALPR) cameras amounts to illegal, warrantless mass surveillance that violates privacy protections under the Colorado Constitution.

The lawsuit, filed in Boulder District Court on May 27, 2026, seeks to block the police department’s use of the cameras, declare the program unconstitutional, and force the release of records detailing the data collected. It is being described as a first-of-its-kind legal challenge of its kind in Colorado.

C'mon. You didn't really think all those Data Centers were being built just to match you up with targeted ads, did you? Maybe handle social media posts?

Naaaah.

It's coming. Just think what the Gestapo or the NKVD could have done with that kind of data sorting power, and AI to do the profiling.

Yep. I agree with what you said.

Now reconcile it with ECHELON, CARNIVORE, and the massive data center built in Utah. That's been years ago.

Sadly, our rights are routinely violated.
