They will just switch to Axon


Does Axon offer the same sort of national, single-database that Flock does?

I'm far more inclined to trust my local department to manage their own database vs. a single database that everyone contributes to and reads from.


They connect into the flock network.

EDIT: There is a claim they terminated their partnership by last year..but who knows.

My angle grinder is vendor-agnostic.


Then society may just regulate the technology.


Society must regulate the people using Flock cameras.

Guns don't kill people, people do.

Automated license plate readers don't stalk jilted ex's, people do.

Pole-mounted facial recognition cameras don't spy on children in swimming pools, people do.


token is the new... token!

It's almost like they're trying to sell you one of their phones... not cool


I disagree, it's cool to promote good projects like GrapheneOS that help people.

Have you seen how many articles recommend not secure and not private alternative phones, that's not cool.

Edit: damn some of their phones with it preloaded are like 4x the price your can get for pixels in the state's. Can't speak to Australian prices for regular pixels tho.


The cheapest option, Pixel 10, costs $1349 from Google, they want $1990 (in Australian Dollars, that's about $940 and $1390 in USD)

So not quite a 50% markup on the bard phone, not quite as bad as 4x.

And while I'd feel like a jerk if I asked for money helping someone at risk of DV setting this up, if I was doing it as a business with the mandatory warranty and support this'd need to include in Australia, I think that's expensive but probably fair?


Yeah fair enough. I see 400-500 USD new 10s on eBay so that's where I was coming from. I wonder how much shipping and importing from the US would be.

Interesting they don't sell the 10a, seems like a great budget phone from what I've seen.

Edit: I didn't consider taxes and initially I assumed exchange rates were more similar then they are.

Law in my profile heh (not on purpose)


I've never seen Torum before, thanks for introducing it!





Cryptocurrency or GPUs. Both are fairly easy to obtain and even easier to move out.
