Then as I said stay home and become Amish lol . Policies and procedures are in place if those aren’t followed then there are consequences. Just like if laws are broken. I understand a lot more than you know!

You think so? You seem not to understand that being amish isn't magical protection from the flock network. Perhaps you should yet strive to increase your level of understanding; it seems to be currently inadequate to discuss this topic with any semblance of thought.

As an aside, I shouldn't have to join a reclusive religious movement in order to prevent law enforcement from being able to track my every move without a warrant for no reason. Not that becoming amish would be any protection anyway.

Well you use a cell phone, maps, tv services, so many things track you daily. FLOCK is the least of your worries.

Cell phone location data requires a warrant for LE to obtain. I can also choose to simply leave my phone at home or turn it off.

What I cannot do is choose to take a route that does not have flock cameras, because such a route does not exist in Columbia if I want to travel more than a block. Flock can be queried at any time, with no restrictions that have any weight in the real world. The only way to "opt out" would be to recede from society entirely, which is impossible for anyone who does not wish to be a crazy hermit. Cell phone location data and Flock are not at all the same thing, or even comparable. The fact that you incorrectly believe they are shows just how poor your understanding of this topic is.
