“The ability to spy on us is being sold to much bigger players, and to me, that’s another indication of the cameras need to come down,” Diaz said. “The whole point of Flock is that it’s a network, and the more people you have in the network, the more people you have accessing and using it, the stronger it gets.”
Flock is using the same strategy as Facebook used to entice and then lock-in an entire generation of social media users, but instead of starting with “I wonder what my old college roommate is up to” it’s “how much government surveillance can we subject you” to. U.S. residents are the product, not the clients of these sorts of tools.
