In November, Florida state Senator Keith Truenow submitted a request to install “significantly more cameras"—about 850—equipped with ZeroEyes across the school district.
850 cameras holy shit. Are people really okay with this?
Lol, do you think blue officials would do different? It’s the one thing they all agree on, surveillance. They’ll take the opposition side whenever they aren’t in power, but they’ll forget that the moment they win.
I don’t think it’s that deep. It’s just ignorant/stupid people falling for clever sales tactics. Most people aren’t equipped to evaluate an AI product offering like this, and the salespeople know how to exploit that.
i mean there were already security cameras all over my k-12 schools in the 80s and 90s. only unfilmed places were the toilets and maybe part of the yard
bay area, california. we had a gang problem the decade prior. the subsequent decade, not so much. i’d be hesitant about the tradeoff (it was far more than security cameras), but we went from five killings a year to one and that’s with population growth.

They’re not given the choice. It’s the foie gras method of consent. What are they going to do? Not vote red in Florida? Inconceivable.

I feel bad for those kids.
