  • I would have to. (Well, I wouldn't even bother looking further into the property once I learned it involved an HOA, but for the sake of argument...) The presence of these cameras is wholly and entirely objectionable.
  • I find this unsettling. When a private entity buys Flock, how do they _use_ it? Is it more than ALPR? Are they sharing the data with the network and offer it to the police? Can they watch footage?
  • Would be a great angle as a buyer's agent to proactively show clients flock camera locations. At the same time, would be an interesting way to hinder the sale of a property by falsely reporting flock cameras where none are.
  • HOA busybodies might be worse than spying cops.

  • Completely frivolous comment: people who insist on capitalizing “realtor” are hilarious. I know “Realtor” is a registered trademark, but that just makes it funnier to me.

    On topic, we’ve stopped going to a popular pizza place near us because the owner put a Flock camera up.

  • don’t forget!!!

    Y Combinator invested in Flock Safety in 2017.

  • HOA and Flock. That is one hellish dystopia over there now.
