#FlockCameras Can Track Every Car in America. #Police Love Them. Citizens Don’t.
In Texas, there’s one thing liberals and conservatives agree on: They don’t want cameras trained on their cars.
By Fernando Alfonso III and Kashmir Hill
Aug. 10, 2026Excerpt: "A #Texas officer used Flock’s cameras to track a woman across state lines who was suspected of self-administering an abortion. Officers across the country have abused their access to Flock’s cameras, including to track romantic partners, resulting in discipline and termination. #LosAngeles and #DaytonOH , among other cities, recently suspended their contracts with Flock to prevent immigration authorities from accessing data from the cameras. Dayton resorted to covering the cameras with trash bags. In cities like Houston, Oakland, Calif., and Grand Junction, Colo., residents have taken matters into their own hands, with police reports and surveillance footage documenting Flock cameras being cut down, splattered with paint and even shot.
"Flock’s pitch is simple: It can help the police find stolen cars, locate wanted people and solve crimes. One license-plate reader led to the arrest in Florida of a man who had threatened a mass shooting in Louisiana; another helped police find the man eventually convicted in an assassination attempt against Donald J. Trump.
"But as its cameras have spread, so has the opposition. Americans are accustomed to surveillance cameras. They put them on their doorbells and tolerate them on street corners, offices and restaurants. What sets Flock’s cameras apart is that they are connected, creating a vast, searchable national network — often surprising residents who didn’t realize their local governments had signed up for them and raising fears of #BigBrother style surveillance. And they are hard to miss once you start noticing them."

«No matter, Rufo said, he had proof in the form of some impressive shoe-leather reporting.
So I visited Dayton for Drop Site News, and tracked down the infamous blue grill. It turns out there are a lot of holes in that shoe leather»

CW: Lazy Hashtagging: Friendly observational ranting.
Tonight I saw the #HamiltonMusical in #DaytonOH. It was marvelous!
I'm a Formula 1 race fan & look forward to #LewisHamilton w/ #FerrariF1 in 2025.
I'm here to search for #Hamilton, the play. I found a link about a cancelled show in Ireland, half a dozen #F1 posts, plus 1 public transit article & countless #WX posts for #HamiltonBC.

There's an upcoming #Netflix doc abt murderous #vampires in #DaytonOhio in the '90s. "Vampires of Gem City" claims #DaytonOH is home to the 2nd largest #VampireCoven in the U.S., outside N'awlins.
A defunct #goth club–Asylum–was allegedly vamp HQ. I went a few times…cool club; not my jam. I've friends who were regs & now have Sanctuary parties in a similar "vein." I know the investigator—sold him occult books.
Strange days.

Feeling artsy, but not artistic? Perhaps an adult coloring book could purge the urge?

I don't recall having shared a selfie on M:BOOKS, so here's your humble curator of social media for Bonnett's Books. The shop is 84 years old, in the same location since 1939.
The t-shirt behind me features our old store stamp on the cover of a "Satan in High Heels" paperback movie tie-in novel from 1962. My grandpa wrote the story the movie is based on and my father has a small role in the film.
Stop in if you visit Dayton!

Not quite ready for sale, a recently acquired collection of vintage Mentor Books. These have always been personal favorites and can be difficult to find in nice shape. Their gloss-clad covers tend to peel, sometimes taking color with it.

The combo of Coronation & Kentucky Derby brought to mind our copy of "The Instructors' Handbook of the British Horse Society and The Pony Club." Here it is along with 7 other equestrian care volumes.

Bonnett's Books is an 80+ year old, 3rd generation, family buisness in a 147 year old building which survived the Great Flood of 1913, in the hometown of the 1st Edgar Cayce Psychic Institute. I'm often asked if we're haunted...
Do you believe in ghosts?

Graham Greene wrote many things & traveled extensively in so doing. "In Search of a Character" is a travelogue from a few such trips.
Martha Grimes' "Send Bygraves" is a mystery told in poetic verse! I'm impressed!

In his wake, remembrance of Al Jaffee's MAD Fold-Ins overshadows his many other contributions to the mag, as collected in numerous paperbacks, like "Snappy Answers to Stupid Questions."

Fresh to our Wellness shelf is Bill Moyers' "Healing and the Mind." When it comes to health, "fake it 'til you make it" is not the way. Put on a strong face, if you wish, but don't fool yourself into ignoring problems.

I forgot to photograph books for today. By way of further introduction, I made this graphic for the curious. I'm new here, but you can look at these to see where I've been (including "the bird site") and the wide variety of things you might see as we move forward together. Enjoy!

Closed Sunday, as usual. Happy Easter!
These books are on our shelves now, until they aren't. If you see something you like it's best not to wait. It's uncommon for me to have multiple copies at a time.

Announcing WWII book signing, yesterday, turned my mind to the shop's history. Here's a peek at our memory wall. Images reflect years between 1939 #Batman № 1 & 2019 #GemCityShine. Good times! Questions? Please ask!

Bonnett's is older than WWII. Some of the stories in this book could belong to our customers, their family, & friends.
