    There’s long been a hypocrisy with the right where they’re all about civil liberties and privacy for themselves and authoritarian surveillance for everyone else.

    Honestly, I have the impression that only death and high taxes can fix the problems we have with our overlords.

    I mean jail for everyone involved in this “illegal national spy program” makes more sense (because we’re not barbarians, mostly) but if people go the rope-tree-traitor route i would say they probably want me on their jury.

    this framing is so stupid to me

    An East Tennessee county commissioner sparked controversy after suggesting during a public workshop that Flock CEO Garret Langley should be hanged for treason.

    Excuse me? The real controversy is the nation-wide surveillance network used to track everyone’s movements. The commissioner’s response seems to be very measured in light of that fact.

    There’s a prison nearby.

    There are not flock cameras outside the prison or anywhere near it.

    That should tell you everything you need to know.

    For fucks sake… don’t scapegoat this 1 person.

    Every township, every county, and every state government is enabling it. Flock just doesn’t go around putting up cameras for charity. They are doing it because your governments are paying them for it.

      Don’t scapegoat them, but also don’t let them off the hook. Don’t let them feel too comfortable about being openly evil. People being comfortable about being openly evil is how bad things happen.
