Yeah, the same with all sorts of media.
Buying a license or buying a subscription.
That's correct.
And this is the hook.
This is the hook.
But beyond all that, what is possible when you have the flock cameras, which are now increasingly showing up in all kinds of neighborhoods?
A lot of pushback, by the way.
Keeping track of us based on our signatures.
The kicker with some of the newer flock, I don't know if you've been reading about it, I've been trying to keep up as much as I can.
It's very challenging even for me to keep up, even as a former technologist in this space, just how far surveillance has gone, where not only is it just a mirror, you have traffic cameras, right?
Well, this goes way beyond that.
It's actually picking up the signatures of any electronic devices linked to you, vehicle, your devices.
Bluetooth, by the way, broadcasts sort of a constant signal.
It's very easy then to start correlating who you are, not just based on the car's license plate, but the car's signature.
And a lot of these cars, as I well know, they actually have a module inside the car that transmits data pretty much all the time and lets you turn it off.
What about all that data is being collected?
Where does it go?
It goes in these massive databases, and this is the back door.
I've got to go right to the point here in terms of government access.
It's one thing for a private corporation to have it.
