    1. _ How exactly does remotely spying on kids practicing gymnastics make them safer?_ from Benn Jordan on YouTube

      Notes

      Read the entire report here: https://jasonhunyar.substack.com/p/why-are-flock-employees-watching-720?r=7c08v8

      I don't care if it's for technical reasons, product demos, or whatever excuse we'll hear. There is simply no acceptable reason to remotely view children via a preschool or private gym's cameras unless a serious crime was committed.

      I want to be 100% clear here about something I don't take lightly. This post is NOT accusing anyone of pedophilia, and I'm not saying that because a lawyer told me to.

      I do not know why they were accessed, but there certainly ARE reasons these cameras may have been accessed by employees that are not personal, such as product demos to other clients. I do not think that is an appropriate reason because the people in the community center did not consent, nor have a reason to believe that they were being watched by Flock employees or police via a remote location.

      Regardless of the reason, I do not think it was appropriate, and it's up to the community center and its members on how seriously they want to take it or if they want to file charges.

      I can't police every comment, nor do I want to, but please do consider that frivolous pedo accusations often chip away at the seriousness of circumstances where children were abused.

    2. no unauthorized users, including Flock Safety employees have access to the footage. Okay, well, a Dunwoody police officer by the name of Bob Carter searched the Flock database 63 times last year for all sorts of things like Person on skateboard or yellow truck. But the problem is, Bob isn't a Dunwoody police officer. He's not a police officer at all. He's Flock's VP of business development and also a registered lobbyist.

      Seemingly against the company's stated policy, a Flock employee accessed public and private cameras.
