The article itself is from August, but after seeing Flock cameras at a local Lowe’s store that were missing from the DeFlock map, I thought it’d be worth bringing increased attention to such companies contributing to the propagation of Flock cameras. If there’s a Home Depot or Lowe’s near you that’s not on the DeFlock map already, it might just not have been added yet.
I could be wrong, but I think any camera with an Internet connection could be a Flock camera. You don’t need solar panels or “chonk” (i.e. batteries) if it’s just hooked up to grid power.
That’s true, but both of the ones shown on deflock are chonky. I recently read that Ring doorbells are giving their data to Flock, probably other companies are too. So, we’re fucked. That being said, all of the cameras made by Flock are chonky. I’m guessing they have some compute in the box to do some AI recognition onboard, probably a 5G antenna and a battery so they can function in a power outage.
