Zuckerbery wants privacy
The short version: A YouTube creator highlights the irony of tech billionaires guarding their own privacy while building surveillance tools for everyone else.
Our Take
The channel Digital ID, Mass Surveillance and Digital Currency flags a familiar hypocrisy: the same executives who buy up neighboring properties, build compounds with blacked-out windows, and scrub their addresses from public records are the ones architecting the data-harvesting systems the rest of us live under. We can't verify every claim in a 400-video catalog like this, but the core observation tracks with what we see every day in ALPR country — privacy is treated as a luxury good, not a right.
That double standard is exactly why Flock Safety's camera network deserves scrutiny. Executives and police departments insist constant plate-by-plate tracking is just 'public safety,' yet the people pushing hardest for it rarely want their own movements logged, sold, or shared with federal agencies. If privacy is good enough for Silicon Valley's gated estates, it's good enough for your driveway.
We encourage readers to see how far this infrastructure has already spread near them on our camera map, and to check our take-action page for ways to push back before 'public safety' becomes a euphemism for permanent surveillance.
