Get the Flock Out: All About Flock Presentation and Coffee Chat

Join us for an in-depth look at Flock Safety and other AI-powered mass surveillance technology infiltrating our streets, targeting people of color, depriving us of privacy, and exploiting our data. Comrade River T.S. will present on their extensive Flock research–guests will learn about the startup history of Flock and the venture capitalists who founded it, the technology itself, the devastating problems it’s inflicted and continues to pose, the power dynamics that enable its unregulated use, and finally a plan of action to combat its sprawl. A free-form coffee chat facilitated by independent journalists Nicole and Dakota of Mojave House will follow, in which guests are encouraged to discuss the broader political and social-emotional ramifications of living in a surveillance state and what we can do about it.
