That hasn't been spelled out yet.
It sounds a little arbitrary at this point.
Welcome to the law, Rachel.
Especially around privacy.
I mean, privacy is so hard to define.
You know, what is an unreasonable search?
That is something that is always getting worked out.
But what the court has found in the past is that, you know, police can't just put a tracker on someone's car, for example, even though they're on public roads and a police officer could follow them, that this idea of using automated means to track somebody.
continually violates the fourth amendment.
And what lawyers I talk to argue is, well, we're doing the same thing now, but instead of putting trackers on people's cars, we're just putting these cameras everywhere on the roads.
I mean, that is the legal question here and kind of the societal question.
What degree of liberty do we want to give up for security?
We'll never have perfect liberty.
We'll never have perfect security.
What has struck me about the reaction to flock cameras is just how bipartisan it is.
People on the left and the right have objections to these cameras.
It's kind of across the board.
And so that's been really striking.
One of the experts I talked to said there is a version of this where we could just have the cameras give alerts and not be tracking us for seven days or 30 days or five years in the case of some states that say you have to retain, you know, the photos of these cars for that long.
I mean, this is a question of every surveillance technology.
