    The notice here on the site reads Flock Cameras have not yet officially been confirmed to be in Canada yet.

    Flock should be banned from Canada. Like ffs can’t we even build our own dystopian security state apparatus? Shameful.

    Flock cameras are not the only problem, ring doorbell cameras and their similar products are also collecting our data and used to train a.I. and watch us and the thing is it is easy to have an off line/local motion detection camera for safety.

    I really wish someone would call out Carney on this shit in a very public forum.

    But no, instead he is gonna get praise for a standard neoliberal stuff.

      He doesn’t care. He is the most conservative PM we got in decades. He is fully about dropping all pretense of human rights and civil rights and democracy. He does not give one fucking iota about Canadian sovereignty more than he has to. I am confident the moment trump is dead he will immediately want to normalize all relations with the US and do his best to act like it never happened.

      Highway 407 is an odd inclusion because… Yeah? Of course it has license plate readers, it’s a toll road. That’s how they charge the toll.

      Otherwise, yeah, Brampton seems to be the big one. Patrick Brown working for his corporate masters again.

      At least the ones that have been mapped so far.

      If you (anyone) spots one, do everyone else a favour and add it to the map.
