The country needs to find a “compromise” between privacy and safety, according to Flock Safety CEO Garrett Langley.

“When people talk about just one of these, privacy or safety, they’re prioritizing the wrong thing, and what we have to prioritize as a country is compromise,” Langley said during a recent interview with Fox News. “How do we have our safety, and how do we balance privacy?”

There's gotta be a compromise for how deep I can stick my unwashed poop-covered fingers in your bag of sugar. Do I not use the bidet and wipe too hard? Do I like exploring each turd in the toilet, or guessing how many pieces of corn are in each one while they're coming out? That's none of your business! Your only job is to decide how to tolerate my poopie fingers churning in your sugar.

flock and AXON feeds are linked to palantir, every reason to shut it down, no compromises. and the cameras have been specifically targeting poc, liberal areas, or any places where people are likely to gather and protest and low income areas.

Yes. I was trying to make the point that everyone should treat these invasive technologies the same way they would treat someone trying to mix feces into their sugar. No one who is even mildly serious about protecting themselves or cooking should welcome any compromise on either. They're not safe, and they're not sane choices.
