No Flock cameras in Seattle, ever. New protections against potential abuses drawn from an outside audit. A handful of cameras in new neighborhoods.

Working in the legal field tells me that if you’re complimenting Axon it just means you don’t know anything about Axon.

AXON and Flock used to be partners. Once Flock tried to move in on Axon's monopoly they split.
The reason corporate media only uses "Flock" as being bad, is because they provide cover for Axon to keep spreading.
Flock <=> Axon
MASS Surveillance is all the same.

Also I hope at some point we can get past the viewpoint that Flock cameras are bad and all other surveillance companies and tools are just fine. Perhaps, if Flock cameras are bad, there might be privacy concerns with other vendors? See the major class action lawsuit just launched against Axon in CA.

Wilson said Axon (née Taser) has a "more responsible record" than Flock, their better-known equivalent. When I talked to the NYU Policing Project auditors yesterday, they told me that there's no difference between Flock and Axon other than which surveillance technology they've used more.

So glad Seattle surveillance cameras aren't operated by Flock, just a little locally-sourced $25 billion corporation called Axon that has $126 million in contracts with ICE/Border Patrol yayyyyy.

Records requests from Axon usually end in them telling us to “go fuck yourself” until we begin formal discovery. After that we get to work with the two humans Axon employs.

I didn’t hear her acknowledge even once the contract Axon has with DHS, and their ability to get around all of our cities restrictions to data sent to the Evidencedotcom cloud, disgraceful

Axon is not “better,” and this is a frank betrayal of those who voted for you to end wide, public surveillance.
Extremely disappointed and I won’t be voting for you again.

I just can't get over how much deliberate manipulation of information there is in this video. We don't even own the cameras, we lease them from Axon. Axon, which contracts with ICE and Israel, will keep using its own cameras however it damn well pleases.

Like every single civil rights agency and org has come out against axon. There are multiple lawsuits. It’s wild, but people who don’t know and won’t bother to learn will be appeased by it, I guess?
