“If you build it, they will come” (proverbio)Se lo costruisci, sarà usato. All’inizio per terroristi, pedofili, reati contro l’amministrazione, poi squadracce, interruzioni di gravidanza, stalking di contestatori,.. …Surveillance companies regularly try to get police to act as quasi salespeople and spokespeople for their companies, pitting a private company and taxpayer-funded law enforcement on one side and citizens on the other. Flock isn’t just selling surveillance, it’s scripting the public case for buying it. Because Flock treats public trust as a messaging problem rather than a governance outcome, that script keeps officials focused on ‘accountability’ in the abstract instead of the concrete harms and documented abuses its network has already enabled.”
