# 'END OF FREEDOM': Flock cameras spark FIERCE backlash nationwide
# Fox News — https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gv8vIl_xiEw

MANY AMERICANS NOW FED UP
WITH LICENSE PLATE READING
CAMERAS.
CLAIMING IT VIOLATES THEIR
PRIVACY.
SOME ARE TARGET AND DAMAGING
THE CAMERAS A.
LOOK AT.
THAT ONE PROTESTER EMING TO FOX
WHY HE HAD ENOUGH.
MY BIGGEST CONCERN IS I
DON'T WANT PEOPLE TO KNOW WHERE
I GO AND WHEN I GO.
THAT'S MY BUSINESS.
NOT ANYONE ELSE'S.
IF YOU TAKE THAT AWAY FROM US,
THAT IS THE END OF OUR FREEDOM.
AND
ONE SHERIFF IN CALIFORNIA
SAYS THE VANDALISM MAY HURT
INVESTIGATIONS.
THESE LICENSE PLATE READERS,
THESE SYSTEMS, CAN TURN A
VEHICLE DESCRIPTION AN
INVESTIGATIVE LEAD LIKE WHEN A
CHILD IS MISSING, A VIOLENT
SUSPECT IS FLEEING OR SOMEONE
HAS BEEN SERIOUSLY INJURED IN A
HIT-AND-RUN, MINUTES MATTER.
THERE ARE SOME 6,000
COMMUNITIES USING FLOCK
CAMERAS.
FLOCK SAFETY SAYS THEY HELP
SOLVE 10,000 CRIMES A WEEK.
LISA, I DON'T KNOW WHERE LISA
IS GOING TO COME DOWN ON THIS
BUT I WANT TO KNOW.
I APPRECIATE THAT.
I ALWAYS WANT TO KNOW WHERE YOU
STAND ON THING.
SO SMART.
THANKS.
I SHARE THE CONCERNS OF THAT
MAN WE JUST HEARD.
WE HAVE ALREADY SEEN HOW
SURVEILLANCE SYSTEMS ORIGINALLY
CRATE CREATED TO KEEP AMERICANS
SAFE ARE ABUSED.
WE SAW THAT AFTER 9/11.
AND WE SEE THE CONCLUSION IT
CAN LEAD TO IN CHINA.
CAMERA NICE WIDE, A.I.,
GOVERNMENT DATA BASES.
YOU KNOW THE GOVERNMENT IS
SPYING ON THEM AND USING THAT
DATA AND INFORMATION TO FIGURE
OUT WHERE THEIR PEOPLE ARE
GOING AND ALSO FOR SOCIAL
CREDIT SCORES.
NOW WE CAN SAY, OK WE LIVE IN
AMERICA.
WE HAVE GOT THE CONSTITUTION,
FOURTH AMENDMENT PROTECTIONS
HERE IN THE UNITED STATES BUT
LOOK AT THE DIRECTION THAT THE
D.S.A. PEOPLE WANT TO TAKE US
IN THAT WE HAVE BEEN
DISCUSSING.
THEY WANT TO BLOW IT UP.
THEY WANT TO GET RID OF THE
SUPREME COURT AND BALANCES THAT
WE HAVE IN AMERICA TO KEEP
GOVERNMENT IN CHECK.
SO THAT MIGHT NOT BE FOREVER.
I DO THINK THAT THE CONCERNS
BEING RACED HERE ARE VALID AND
SHOULD BE LISTENED TO AND
WEIGHED AGAINST OR SECURITY AS
WELL.
MARCUS YOU JUST THAT POSE
AGAINST COVID AND IN LOCKDOWN
IF YOU HAD AN ADMINISTRATION
THEY WOULD USE CAMERAS TO SEE
IF YOU ARE LOCKED DOWN.
I DON'T MIND THE CAMERA
SYSTEM IN A SCHOOL ZONE AND
WANT TO TAKE A PICTURE BUT THE
INTEROPERABILITY THAT CONNECTS
NETWORK AFTER NETWORK AND CAN
NOW FOLLOW ME FROM ONE COUNTY
TO THE NEXT, ONE STATETE TO TH
NEXT.
I WORRY AS WE TRY TO THINK
ABOUT PROTECTING OUR PRIVACY,
CAN COURTS SUBPOENA?
CAN SEEM SUBPOENA YOUR
WHEREABOUTS ON A CASE TOTALLY
UNREMOVE LATED TO SPEEDING OR
THE THINGS THE SHERIFF SAID.
I FEEL LIKE I HAVE COVERED
UNTIL CRIMINAL CASES TO BE LIKE
IF ONLY THERE WAS VIDEO
EVIDENCE, THIS WOULD BE SO
EASY.
SEE BOTH SIDES.
IT IS VERY BRIG BROTHER.
ERIC AND I WENT TO CHINA FOR
THE VISIT, WE TALKED ABOUT HOW
MANY CAMERAS WE SAW EVERYWHERE.
SO IN YOUR FACE AND SO OBVIOUS.
THEY ARE MAINTAINING EYES ON
EVERYTHING IN CHINA.
THEY WERE LOOKING AT YOU.
PROBABLY LOOKING.
PROBABLY.
BUT I ALSO TEXTED AND
PREPARED FOR THE SEGMENT A
FRIEND OF OURS WHO WORKS FOR
THE PALM BEACH SHERIFF
DEPARTMENT AND SAID WHERE DO
YOU STAND ON THIS?
I TRUST HIS OPINION.
HE WAS THE INDIVIDUAL WHO
ARRESTED RYAN ROOTH WHO
WOW.
TRIED TO ASSASSINATE THE
PRESIDENT AT THE GOLF COURSE
AND SAID HAD IT NOT BEEN FOR
THE LICENSE PLATE READER, I
WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO GET TO
HIM.
I KNEW HE WAS HEADED IN MY
DIRECTION AND ALLOWED ME TO
MAKE THAT DIRECTION.
SO YOU CAN SEE BOTH SIDES OF
THIS ARGUMENT.
IN THE WRONG HANDS, THOUGH, TO
YOUR POINT, IT IS VERY SCARY.
I MANY HOUSE SOUNDS LIKE
CHINA.
AND NOW I FEEL VINDICATED GIVEN
WHAT YOUR FRIEND SAID.
YET IS UN?
NY WITH THE NEW ALARM SYSTEM,
THEY ANNOUNCE ANYONE.
ONE OF OUR NEIGHBORS SOUNDS
LIKE A BIRD.
ALWAYS TWEETING.
SO I KNOW THE IMPORTANCE OF IT.
BECAUSE I IT IS A CROSS FROM
PARENTS WHOSE CHILDREN HAVE
GONE MISISSING AND LESS THAN 4
HOURS.
AND SOME OF THOSE THINGS TURN
OUT AMAZINGLY AND SOME DON'T
AND TECHNOLOGY IS ALWAYS THE
REASON WRYE WHY THEY TURN OUT
WELL IN LESS TIME.
SOME OF THEM WORK OUT ON THEIR
OWN AND THROUGH GREAT POLICE
WORK BUT TECHNOLOGY MAKES AN
IMMEDIATE DIFFERENCE.
THAT IS HARD TO IGNORE.
AT THE SAME TIME, I DON'T KNOW
ANYONE WHO WANTS TO BE WATCHED
FROM POINT-TO-POINT.
I DON'T THINK THAT IS SAFE.
YOU CAN CREATE CRIME LIKE THAT.
WHO IS WATCHING THIS?
NOT EVERYBODY WILL BE A GOOD
GUY.
JUST THINK ABOUT EVERYWHERE IN
LIFE IS A MICROCOSM OF WHERE WE
ARE NOW.
CAN SAY, NO WE ONLY HIRE THE
BEST PEOPLE.
10% ARE PROBABLY NOT THE BEST
PEOPLE.
SO WHAT DO YOU DO WHEN IT GETS
INTO WRONG HANDS AND STALKING
IS A REAL THING.
I UNDEDERSTAND WHY PEOPLE DON'
WANT TO GIVE UP THAT MUCH
FREEDOM.
MY HEART WENT OUT TO THAT
GENTLEMEN TALKING TO THE
REPORTER AT THE STOPLIGHT
SAYING I DON'T WANT TO BE
WATCHED SO I GET IT.
THINK WE HAVE TO HAVE A GOOD
DISCUSSION ABOUT WHAT BALANCE
LOOKS LIKE BUT WE NEED AN OPEN
CONVERSATION.
AS LONG AS IT IS NOT USED AS
A WEAPON.
IF THE ADMINISTRATION WAS
DIFFERENT IT WOULD BE A WEAPON.
I WORRY UNDER THIS CERTAIN
ADMINISTRATION I DON'T WORRY.
IF IT WAS UNDER A DIFFERENT
ADMINISTRATION, D.S.A. AM I
GOING TO BE TARGETED AND
FOLLOWED?
GO BACK TO THE
