I take my dog for a walk in my neighborhood and walk by no less than 10 different camera setups, and those are the ones I actually notice. Paranoia has led us down the road to a post-privacy society.
Lol ya and all that video footage is owned by the company of those cameras, like Ring aka Amazon. They can access it at anytime and they can even give it to the police.
Edit: there are setups in which you can store your footage on your own drives. However, many people don’t know how to set it up so they use out of the box camera + app which stores all the data on the company servers.
I’ve been thinking of getting a camera setup, but all the popular stuff is cloud crap, and the best options seem to be Chinese crap that I wouldn’t trust on my network, so I’ll need a separate network for them.
It’s a pain! Why can’t I just get the popular hardware and just disable the stuff I don’t want?
It’s frustrating that nearly everything is either a security risk, a privacy risk, or a vendor lock-i, and often all three.
I have two sets of clothing I have specifically for protesting in simply because my normal attire would definitely single me out and make me easy to identify.
I hate how much effort is put into property damage but when my house was broken into or when my friends truck was stolen, the police did nothing.
It’s also disturbing how hard it is to be anonymous. Crime or not, it gives me the creeps that anyone could probably track me down if they wanted.
The police are here to protect the owner class.
That’s how they got Luigi. They protect and serve the rich ass only.
Pretty sure that was supposed to say class, but it still works with the typo
Don’t think the feds were looking in into either of those things. Musk has a direct FBI line as a homescreen icon.

And Amazon definitely hasn’t ever provided police with any unrestricted access to whatever footage they want!

Buy donation clothing. And by that I mean, buy protest clothing that you can easily take off and donate to a homeless person.
