Axon, Genetec, Vigilant (Motorola), Rekor, Leonardo… A lot of them and the tech is pretty easy so a hundred other smaller companies. It needs to be banned at the national level by law for any actual change, but good luck convincing the government not to build out the Panopticon they seem to want so badly.
The most easily recognizable by people would be Google and Meta. Those two top the charts for non-consensual surveillance. I think those to need to be reigned in big time, along with some of the other big tech companies. All are anti-consumer. I guess at least those try to have some level of transparency, but they still have awful business practices.
I’ve seen Palantir employees in Charlottenburg while visiting Berlin in 2023 ;) They are not as invisible as you would think. They’ll wear clothing from Patagonia with the branding
We need to spread this to the other mass surveillance companies, starting with Palantir.
I don’t have that kind of faith in humanity.
Flock has failed but they really just serve as a demonstration of what not to do, for dozens of other companies.
People much smarter than me will have already mapped it out.
What’s the name of the alternative camera company thats been gaining ground while folks are angry about flock?
Axon, same company that makes body cameras for police

Thank you for the list! ❤️
Sadly Palantir works in the shadows unlike Flock, harder to point out to people
