Flock didnt just start a surveillance system in the US by themselves.
I suggested Chinese companies aren't unsupervised, but are in fact state owned and very supervised (Chinese state surveillance is well known).
You point out that surveillance is also a profit making business/product (flock).
You could point to google, meta, and AI as emerging or profitable surveillance tool products.
Does that mean Chinese products are engaged in free market surveillance and not state directed?
This is the logic of paranoia; we know they have a surveillance state the same way you know America has one.
