a decade ago I gave up music production and sold my console to be able to pay rent and got an electrical engineering job. then i got laid off over email because AI took my electrical engineering job. pretty cool

There's a big fight coming up.
Unless you plan on going out with a wimper.
Enjoy how terrible everything is while it lasts. By 2030 and beyond, We will all be wishing to be back in 2026.

@BennJordan I know you would hate me and many of the things believe. You’d probably call me a “fascist”, too. But I want you to know that I LOVE your work, what you stand for, and how you conduct these kinds of investigations and the resulting action. I wish there was a way to support it more easily, and if you ever need a mechanical engineer, let me know.

Problem with Ground News is precisely the leveling of far right and far left nonsense. I'm sympathetic to one, and to everyone's right to whatever extremism floats their boat, Ground News seems to know what it's doing, and in my time using it, I noticed far more wingnut right views presented than wingnut left views, and I left it as a result. Literate Machine has a few long videos on this that I recommend others have a look at if you get a chance.

Absolutely wild how you started the movement to ensure Flock’s transparency and security (among other things). When people say one person can’t change the world I’ll look to people like you🫡

Total respect for your work, Benn, but just one thing: I don't know if it's just me, but the background music (at least for the first 20 minutes or so?) was a bit too loud. It really made it hard to focus on what you were saying. Or maybe it's because my mind always goes to the music.

Thankful for your work and effort in this battle!! Wondering when the battle against flock surveillance drones will begin?? Anyone paying any attention to the night skies can spot them, they’re everywhere and growing in numbers as more of the road cams are being taken down. Easier to get away with eyes in the skies as most people don’t know about them yet.

Unauthorized access is even worse than hacking your way in if you think about it… Everyone can gain unauthorized access just by pressing a button, that is way better😂😂

The survey question at 7:08 is terribly designed. It links support/opposition to automated monitoring to its efficacy. One might object to monitoring whilst also thinking that it reduces crime (or vice versa).

I've SEEN Jason walking through the park. I'm familiar with him due to his frequent amazing posts in Atlanta subreddits. I have the same concerns as him. All of these flock cameras pointed at the playground, skate park, dog park, all along the walking path… wtf?? I don't have a license plate on my behind. Do these cameras know my dog's personal gait as well????

Oh, & "Benn-Jordan-a** questions"…? Like, questions that are rooted in science, & fact, & legitimate public interest? THOSE sorts of questions?? Keep up the good fight Benn, & thank you for being who you are.

<cackling> "I would classify that as, uh, unauthorized access… not a hack"
Well golly-gee, Mister Business Man–isn't that a word that was made to describe… unauthorized access?
