Even AI knows: "peter Thiel" came out as "reptile" in the subs.😂

We can all be Heroes..

Have you read this? It even has suggestions on tools not to use… https://www.coffeeandcovid.com/p/selfie-vigilantes-thursday-july-9

Perhaps it's time for the First chapter of the American Blade Runner's Association.

America needs more of these citizens. Clearly, just follow the rules, and seemless instructions for a fault free future. And remember, choose your friends wisely, and keep a low profile.

In Britain, when they cut a camera down, they have started putting bat boxes on the pole. Their law lists bats as a protected species and cannot be disturbed. Also, the contract for that camera location is usually just that small square the pole now rests in.

Nothing wrong with observation of public behavior. Everything wrong with vandalism of not-your-property.

You don't like it if someone sees you driving out of your garage? So, shoot your neighbor? Shoot the cop on the corner? That's not what being in public means. There is no right of privacy in the public domain. Never has been. There is no realism in the paranoid fantasy that people with eyeballs are staring at your public life 24 hours a day. That sort of boring job would be a killer. The staff would be unaffordable. The feed is pulled up when there is cause to cope with a criminal event.

So, go ahead and surround your property with walls or hedges. That is as old as the hills and very effective against physical intrusion. Put screens around your backyard pool. Live in the center of a 5-acre plot. Or in the center of a 200-unit apartment complex. You only get messed up mentally if you think that being in public means being invisible.

AI is a new type of color blind. To some people it's obvious as fuck, and to others they can sit there for hours looking at it and not see it at all.

Why does a.i. say...Yes, groups often broadly associated with or categorized under the "antifa" (anti-fascist) umbrella strongly oppose Flock cameras.

Antifa hates these flock cameras. That's how we know the cameras are good and that only terrorists detest them. These cameras are for law enforcement. And we know only demon savages break laws. We know this because we are good. Billionaires pay for this technology and they need a place to put their data, in special data centers near our communities. We are on their side because they know what is best for us.

it won't be long before [they] figure out that camera drones are cheaper and easier to deploy. The eyes in the skies have been multiplying since before I was born 7/31/60. Better energy generation and sharper focus have been ongoing improvements in that tech since then as well.

AI will only accelerate the improvements going forward. Computing power requires vast amounts of energy. As we go forward, energy will still be the primary requirement for modern civilization (what's so civil about it?). The "choke point" in effect. Chopping these cameras down is a nice simple act of defiance. Whether it amounts to a "hill of beans" or not ... who knows really.

These systems (LPR) have been in use for decades now. I drove a little corolla all over south Texas to a distance of about 100 miles around San Antonio that had them installed. They read plates fairly well... from what I looked at of the results. I would put it in the upper 80% to lower 90% range. The pictures taken by the system are oft misread by the software used to "read" image and add info in the database.

That database is a revenue generating tool for companies as well as a tool for civil enforcements.

The matrix will continue to evolve.

Even the ACLU is against them. And here I was thinking they were a lost cause...
