Unlike many of Flock’s cameras, Flock’s Condor cameras track people, not vehicles.

The exposure highlights the fact that Flock is not just surveilling cars—it is surveilling people, and in some cases it is doing so in an insecure way.

And unlike other cameras, Flock's Condor PTZ cameras track people. 404 Media saw:

- A woman walking her dog on a bike path
- A man walking through a Macy’s parking lot
- Children at a playground
- A man rollerblading, and a zoom into exactly what he was looking at on his phone
Flock Exposed Its AI-Powered Cameras to the Internet. We Tracked Ourselves
Flock left at least 60 of its people-tracking Condor PTZ cameras live streaming and exposed to the open internet.

This is 404 Media's @jasonkoebler.bsky.social waving at himself through a Flock camera; one of 60 we learned was left exposed to the open internet. Not only could anyone with a link livestream it, but some admin portals were open with no login credentials required.

There is no room for slobbering bigotry in the White House. It will ultimately harm all of us, all Conservative and Liberal Americans.

The foreign-born fraction of the US population was 15% in 1890, and in 1910. America thrived.

That fraction is 16% now.

The difference is that in 1890/1910, >96% of immigrants were from Europe or Canada. Today that's less than 10%.

It's best to be honest about one one is actually afraid of.
Rep. Kat Cammarck: "Today, one in six people in the US is foreign born. That quite frankly is not sustainable to maintain a culture that we are known for here in the United States."
