Greetings, Dear Reader,
We are taking another run at it.
NO, SERIOUSLY, FLOCK OFF
Dear Flock And Flock Supporters,
It isn’t that we don’t trust Flock. Okay, maybe it is a little bit. There hasn’t been a good recent track record when it comes to tech companies gathering personal data. See, nobody has the time to read your insidiously written user agreements. Nobody has the money either to pay lawyers to read your insidiously written user agreements. Maybe if you people stopped printing it directly into the bank accounts of Somalian fraudsters … but I digress.
No, Flock is just a buzzing little nuisance. At best, it’s a bill taxing us for $50 for a moving violation we don’t even remember doing.
At worst, it’s police showing up at a woman’s door because one of her little girls was caught on surveillance camera riding a swing that broke. It’s a criminal justice system that has no difficulty attempting to prosecute those little girls, 12 years old and 10 years old, for criminal mischief. They had to sit utterly petrified in a court room as a police officer........
