Respectfully, your opinion is wrong too. I get OF’s perspective, because except for the few Jeff Soverns of the world, I didn’t expect people to mobilize in a real way, en masse, countrywide against Flock. I didn’t think they would because we’ve been living under the Patriot Act and FISA for almost thirty years and also more recently the Cloud Act. The American people, generally, have shown themselves to be careless when it comes to protecting their personal privacy and civil liberties, and it’s really hard to change one’s opinion and learn more on this issue because the billionaire-owned media does not report on it, which is likely purposeful. (Partly why I have a YT channel on the topic.) But then I made a YT video on the Flock Buyout and learned that, in fact, I was wrong and the people are seriously kicking Flock’s ass. (And even more fun, Anti-Flock movements have been around for years now, too.) I’m sure OF will maybe change their thinking after learning new info.
