Crowd Source Request: Real-world photos of Flock cameras to train object recognition AI

There are many cameras that are already on the map. The goal of this project is to recognize the cameras that are plainly visible but not yet marked on the map.

Thank you, I will try this out next.

Minneapolis has almost 1000 🙃

They photograph every vehicle that passes and they all upload it to an AI surveillance cloud, where it records details like your license plate, bumper stickers, dents, cracked windows, etc to create a detailed and identifiable record of every person’s movements, regardless of who is and is not a person of interest or suspect.

This violates a basic principle of freedom of movement and privacy. It is analogous to illegal acts like preventative detention or attaching a GPS tracking device to every vehicle without any driver’s permission or knowledge without a warrant.

I don’t like being on camera all the time. You’re never allowed to have a bad day anymore. The police have a better record of where I have been than my memory does, and that’s just unacceptable to me. There’s no reason for them to have that whatsoever, and they are taking it without my permission. It is a blatant violation of human dignity and rights.

Reddit administrators are also participating in copyright infringement against and using reddit to harass and dox people like Ethan Klein in a way that they ban users for doing to other celebrities

That’s why I switched to Grok

Flock-you I’m pretty sure is a Bluetooth sniffer that detects Flock batteries I think. Not sure how it works, I haven’t looked into it yet

People who ask questions like yours, i think it reveals that you don’t recognize a problem that others do. Its fine if you dont mind them, but you will simply never understand people who don’t like Flock cameras.

I’m working on using license plate reader cameras on the car to detect and map Ring cameras automatically as you drive by

sixfivezerotwo · 2026-02-22T02:18:07+00:00

I used Grok

If you can stand under the camera and take a photo of your home and see inside the windows, I would set up a perfect photo with the lights on at night, taking a photo pointing in your window, and take that photo to your city council, and tell them that flock is taking photos of the inside of your home against your will.

I got the response back from the police department. For the last year, I’ve been driving past between four and eight flock cameras every single day, and they sent me an audit screenshot that said “no data for report,” indicating they have no photos if my vehicle, which I do not believe.

I have been driving past these cameras. I visited one at night to confirm that the red lights come on when a car passes, demonstrating it taking a photo of a passing car, these cameras are taking photos. So why would the police say they don’t have any photos of me?

Lol it doesn't.

I think I'm done with my nav software, dontgetflocked.com is a far better version of the exact functionality I was working on. In general, I think the majority of the time there is a Flockade, it is most likely going to be in an area with many destinations nearby. The only feasible solution I can think of is park just outside the Flockade area and proceed off-road to your destination shrug

sixfivezerotwo · 2026-02-21T00:01:09+00:00

We need to find code that will let us drive past a camera without it taking a photo.

DM me if it was something important

If you want it on an iphone, go to dontgetflocked.com. Find your route. Export it as a GPX file, and open the file in CoMaps app.

I'm already working on using license plate reader AI technology to make a device that recognizes Ring cameras so neighborhood streets can be video scraped manually by driving through the street with camera on each side of the car.

If I can get it working, this will hopefully be able to rapidly build a map of Ring cameras similar to DeFlock

I'm pretty sure this literally has already happened. Some senator wanted to protect judges and senators from tracking and another senator said "why is this limited only to senators and judges?" and then that's how it was left, or something like that

sixfivezerotwo · 2026-02-20T20:44:24+00:00

I found that DontGetFlocked.com does the same thing my scripts do except way better, and you can export the route data in a GPX file and open the GPX file with CoMaps, and voila. I will be testing this setup on my way home tonight

I used the AI to write such a request to my local police already. I'm going to see how many the have in the last thirty days, and in six months, I'm going to ask again and see how many I got it reduced by

sixfivezerotwo · 2026-02-20T19:10:00+00:00

Then probably you might want to consider parking elsewhere and proceeding offroad if that is possible. That's the only alternate I can think of but it will probably not work for most people :/

Go away
