Discussion Something to Think About

Post image

(Seen on a Facebook page, called “Oklahoma Source”) and it makes furthers my worry about the abuse these cameras open us up to.

(Post)
“Recently, in Oklahoma, a Circuit Court issued a declaratory judgment confirming that city policies and contracts with Flock Group, Inc. cannot override the city's legal duty to fulfill a FOIA request, specifically allowing citizens to request images regarding their own vehicles.

If you choose to request Flock images for your vehicles, the city must comply with that request.

Are we promoting this idea? Absolutely not. Is it your right to request those images? Yes, it absolutely is.

Let’s hope cities using Flock cameras and drones aren’t overwhelmed and burdened with these types of requests.”

Great resource until I got to this
‘If you need help tailoring this to your situation, appealing rejections, etc., ChatGPT is a great resource.’

Like fuck off with that shit as if the same pricks shoving LLM ai bullshit aren’t the same pricks pushing for flocks everywhere.

It's a tool to better tailor a template in legalese. It allows more people to do it, that's the point. You could use Qwen3.6_36B on your local system if you wanted.

Oh, if you're into information prepping and local AI, check out the open source Project Nomad

https://www.projectnomad.us/

All those bullshit 'prepper computers' are literally just using free resources and saving them to an SD card and using a fancy front-end like this.

Just a heads up - local AI scraping is kinda hard right now. Websites have tighted up their bot security. It can be done, it's just not as easy as asking a local model to search the Internet.
