I’m a frequent contributor to OSM, along with being passionate about individual privacy. Adding Flock cameras to the map has become a new hyperfixation for me. The best part is that when tagged correctly, they appear on deflock.me along with OSM. It’s a simple way to help your community know when they’re around these dystopian ALPR cameras. Deflock also has an app, although I cannot attest for it - I believe that it dumps the data into OSM too, so it may be better suited for those without OSM experience.

    In this specific case, the only people I could contact are Home Depot corporate, and they signed a huge contract ($$$) with Flock. It’s something I’ve thought about though. I really wish Lowe’s and Home Depot weren’t the only home improvement stores in town, as they both have Flock.

      Well, thanks. That means I never want to go to either one Lowes or Home Depot ever again. They simply do not exist for me.

        You’re already being tracked by private facial recognition inside the store, and have been for probably a decade
