Just added my local Home Depot's Flock cameras to OSM (deflock.me)

I'm a frequent contributor to OSM, along with being passionate about individual privacy. Adding Flock cameras to the map has become a new hyperfixation for me. The best part is that when tagged correctly, they appear on deflock.me along with OSM. It's a simple way to help your community know when they're around these dystopian ALPR cameras. Deflock also has an app, although I cannot attest for it - I believe that it dumps the data into OSM too, so it may be better suited for those without OSM experience.

Did you see the piece about the lady driving through Bow Mar and they tried to blame her for stealing packages because she showed up on a camera as driving through that area? Very pushy cop too. Denver is out of control with these things.

I saw the first few minutes. The cop was straight up lying, and if she didn't have her own porch camera recording it, with audio, we'd never know.
