I'm an ex-employee of Flock who left when I learned just how empty their words about ethics and morality of increased surveillance really were.

They will happily look the other way when agencies share data that Flock knows they're not meant to be sharing.

They will happily "massage" data when needed to shore up a case (particularly with their gunshot detection).

Their transparency report probably lists only about 2/3 (at most) of the agencies that are actually using the system.

I asked lots of questions about ethics and morality in the recruitment process, got in, and rapidly learned that it was openly mask-off, surveillance state, Minority Report-esque mission.
