In Wisconsin, #Flock was used as a pretext to search a man's car for weed solely based on the fact that he had driven to Michigan multiple times. Wait a minute.... But I was told these Flock cameras were just for finding missing children, violent criminals, and car thieves! If you actually believed that, you don't understand how the government works. Everything in government starts small and reasonable. Such as the history of social security numbers. As time goes on though, all government programs expand and grow far beyond the original stated goals. Governments are kind of like thousands of different parasites joined together. Flock Cameras are one parasitic program among many, and it cannot stop growing or it dies. These cameras will continue to be updated to collect more and more different kinds of data, that data will be retained for longer and longer periods of time, and that data will be used for more and more things. They will be used to track down suspects and prosecute them for every victimless or minor crime you can think of. -cannabis or other drug "crimes" -minor traffic infractions -truancy -protest attendance -curfew violations -tracking down people who owe child support, back taxes, etc -a whole list of technical probation or parole violations that normally would of been hard to prove, but with Flock you better hope your PO likes you -Vandalism -Trespassing This opens a Pandora's Box. Imagine a police officer or city official doesn't like the political things you say on social media. They can type in your X username into Flock's dashboard and it will immediately bring up any vehicles associated with you. From your movements over the past 3 months, the Flock AI will be able to find SOMETHING to get you on. That's because no matter how perfect you think you are, no matter if you pay your taxes and have followed the rules your entire life, you are probably still guilty of a couple. crimes without even realizing it. And one by one, just like in Stalinist Russia, whoever has access to Flock can use it to get anyone they want arrested. It's a lot harder to vote if you are in jail. Cops will use it to get their numbers up and justify their inflated budgets. Politicians will use it to target their opponent's supporters. Courts will become clogged, jails will fill up, poor communities will be devastated. It's easy to see what's coming. It's a lot harder to stop it. It must be stopped, now, before they can use Flock to destroy the #deflock movement.

Toxic bitcoin maximalism has set the battle to get people to self custody back years. Toxic bitcoin maximalism has decimated the ranks of DCAers and hodlers who support the price during bear and bull. Toxic bitcoin maximalism has stifled innovation and held bitcoin back from achieving it's mission. Toxic bitcoin maximalists have rejected cypherpunk principles and gotten in bed with Wall Street and the government. Toxic #bitcoin maximalists have attacked countless people who dare to even discuss shitcoins for being "scammers" while simultaneously promoting #coldcard which scammed people into thinking they were highly secure. Thank God I only wanted hardware wallets that also supported shitcoins.

According to Dylan LeClair, "It should be said very clearly there is nothing wrong with white glove multisig solutions, collaborative custody, or *gasps* even ETFs." I disagree entirely. There actually is something wrong with ETFs. The west is no longer safe. Governments can and will seize funds for arbitrary reasons, western governments are rapidly becoming very authoritarian. ETFs and custodians might feel safe, but they are most definitely not safe. Any custody solution that involves using your real identity is not safe because of leaks and the criminals who take advantage of these leaks. There are risks and these risks are often withheld from new bitcoiners. I think some bitcoin maxis are more concerned with acquiring new converts for NGU than with being honest about the risks. Bitcoin is not easy, it is not fun, but do it right and it means freedom from slavery. #bitcoin #coldcard https://x.com/i/status/2083624141656039893

One of the most terrifying policies of the Trump administration is that you can now land yourself on a fucking FBI terrorism watchlist if an AI model thinks you are expressing views including but not limited to these extremely broad categories of "anti-Americanism, anti-capitalism, and anti-Christianity;…extremism on migration, race, and gender; and hostility towards those who hold traditional American views on family, religion, and morality." Can arguing against statism from an anarcho capitalist perspective be conaidered "anti-American"? Probably. Anything they want can be considered "anti-American"... Bro what the fuck? It's 1950s style McCarthyism supercharged by an AI powered technocracy. If you post anything even remotely controversial it may be time to scrub your timeline and become anon if you are doxxed. It is not safe to be political under your real name. What Republican voters might not understand is that once Trump's FBI pops the Minority Report cherry, there is no going back. The same tools can and will be used by a Democrat administration. This isn't good for ANYONE. #privacy #opsec #trump #AI https://reason.com/2026/07/28/minority-report-fbi-seeks-ai-for-political-watch-list/

It's so satisfying to launch these.

Parts of the "left" have, the parts that haven't been in power. Otherwise surveillance has had mostly bipartisan support in Congress over the years.

If representational democracy worked at scale, America wouldn't constantly be fighting wars that the majority of people don't want to fight. It's a LARP. The ruling class only cares what the "people" want in regards to preventing outright revolt and their own deaths. Beyond that bare minimum, they could care less. The American system of government is just a really fancy way to enslave people without them even realizing they are slaves. It was probably started with good intentions of enabling liberty and peace while restraining government, but that failed a long time ago. You can restart the game 1000 times and it will always fail and end in slavery. Instead of repeatedly failing, we have to install an entirely different game. It's called #voluntaryism.

Another advantage of Graphene OS is that they fix backdoors that Google still refuses to fix. https://x.com/i/status/2054221841330311369

Flock Safety is trying to frame being anti flock as a position of the far left. Stopping warrantless surveillance is not a right versus left issue, it has bipartisan support across the country. Flock is desperate, you are going see more of these kinds of tactics. -trying to associate the deflock movement with completely unrelated groups on the far left -swarms of pro flock bots and paid influencers on social media. Anyone expressing pro flock opinions is likely either naive, has been paid, or is a bot. -lots of "we found this missing person or solved this crime with a flock camera" exaggerated and fake news stories. Flock Safety has a huge profit incentive to destroy this movement, the amount of money on the line is staggering. That's because they aren't just selling cameras, they are selling subscriptions to a powerful surveillance database at 3k a year per camera. Do the math, an Orwellian nightmare makes them rich and they will live unsurveilled in gated citadels while the masses are watched 24/7. These pro Flock accounts like AM86613302...here usually have very few followers and screen names with lots of numbers.
