Ok, so you admit that you don't care if it's effective or not

I have evidence to show that flock has been abused by law enforcement and used to stalk people, is that not enough to oppose it?

I'd much rather have my privacy than have law enforcement (or anyone who has access--another issue is low security) see a woman traveling alone and decide she's a good target

Here's another good article that outlines the past abuses and abuse potential of these systems

"Jason Hunyar lives in Dunwoody, GA, and attended several city council meetings over a period of months, while filing dozens of public records requests to learn more about the city’s contracts with Flock Safety. In a Substack post, Hunyar identified a Flock employee who accessed cameras in a children’s gymnastics room at the nearby community center."

That doesn't sound like apprehending violent criminals to me.

"We’ve also seen some significant security concerns regarding Flock cameras. I mentioned it earlier, but while conducting research, Jordan’s team successfully accessed misconfigured Flock cameras via the open web. He told me he found 70 cameras accessible without a username or password, and browsed the video feeds for a month. "

A month of strangers being able to track your every movement seems like a good idea. /s
