    What I love about this is that they name names and show exactly what those employees (some higher up) were looking at. I bet they thought they had privacy, just like us when there are flock cameras around.

      Just repeating the gist of the article for visibility:

      Why does Randy Gluck, manager at Flock, secretly watch people take a bath? Why does Bob Carter, Vice President at Flock, secretly watch people do gymnastics?

    We need to start a public trend of labelling these surveillance companies as voyeurs until everyone thinks of them as perverts first and legitimate companies second.

        I agree in principle, but they give the impression of being so, and it’s the impression that needs to change. In order to address this, we have to recognize the impression that other (probably most) people have.

          I will say, this is the one company that I’ve seen people not have that impression. I am grateful for it.

          That said.

          Even giving them the dignity of recognition is bad news.

          Their only money is government money. This isn’t a people problem it’s a political problem.

          Just because they make money and are dickheads doesn’t make them legitimate. I’ve seen their emails.
