Flock CEO calls for ‘compromise’ as surveillance company faces growing backlash | TechCrunch

If not, I call for legislation to be passed that criminalized the usage of personal data for surveillance. Data collected without permission…

I need to think this through a little more but fuck it right? Make a proposed law that people can publicly support that show just how goddamn serious people are about this shit.

It’s been tried before, and abandoned because it’s generally a bad idea. What you’re describing is a bill of attainder, a law passed specifically to punish an individual or group.

a law passed specifically to punish an individual or group.
