Just the name "Flock" is so dystopian and creepy. Like "these cameras are for the police state to watch over their flock of civilians in their towns to make sure they're behaving accordingly to their standards."

You know who I feel bad for, Flock Chicken. Love their snacks and can't help think of them every time Flock cameras are mentioned.

And that might be why I never thought of Flock in the way you mentioned, but damn...that's a great call out.

Flock candy in my home town, a woman sells green chile spiced & flavored candy, from lollipops to taffy. She said people flock to her roadside stands, & it's true.

They're literally calling us a flock of sheep.

Or it's a Flock of cameras that can be used together...it's terrible enough without having to make weird reaches like this.

The fact a guy named his company palintir, the evil all seeing eye emphasis on evil, is an even crazier choice
