How cops are using Flock to look for specific people; the company buying mountains of books for AI companies; and the big Suno hack.#Podcast
Podcast: Flock is Tracking People, Not Just Cars
We start this week with Joseph’s story on how cops are using Flock to track actual people, not just cars, with searches like “male with tattoos.” After the break, Emanuel tells us all about the company that is explicitly selling mountains of books to AI companies and promising to keep the sales a secret. In the subscribers-only section, Jason tells us how he learned about the Suno hack and what it showed us.
