Flock Pitched a Plan To Turn Uber and Lyft Drivers Into Roaming Surveillance Vehicles. From the article:
…the presentation, written by Flock to present to the Georgia Office of the Attorney General last August, reads. “Plus Nexar partnership which includes 350k Uber/Lyft and other delivery service devices.”
The deal didn’t go through but what the actual fuck?
Just so I’m understanding something correctly,
- China state surveillance = very bad
- US private company selling surveillance data to government = perfectly fine. what do you have to hide commie?
Almost like there needs to be some regulations put on these companies. The social contract of American capitalism hasn’t been working for quite sometime and it’s obvious to a lot of us that we are heading full steam into a fascist state, but I’m still gob smacked.
