Community note: it is my understanding, based on teardowns that I've found online, that Flock cameras should be assumed to contain a cellular modem and at least one GPS receiver. At least some have been found to contain an addition, obfuscated GPS receiver.

So they aren't even hardwired to the net and can easily be jammed with commonly available Jamming hardware?

Not an american, here in germany you'd barely get a fine if they even bother to prosecute you for using a jammer for a few minutes here and there. But I don't yet have to deal with ai powered surveillance cams by private companies in my city.

Well that is too bad. I am glad it is taken seriously here in the US because wireless jamming is a serious public safety issue.

Yet evidently we don't care about an actual massive public safety issue in the form of these cameras cataloging each person's habits and frequented locations and freely handing them out like candy to any organizations willing to fork out the cash.

Go figure, at least people can't jam the cameras, imagine how bad that would be...?
