  2. Victory! #Flock Ends Rollout of Audio “Distress Detection” of Human #Voices

    Reversing course, #FlockSafety —the #surveillance technology vendor most known for its extensive network of automated #licensePlate readers—has announced that it will end a pilot for its acoustic #gunshot detection devicesto identify signs of “human distress.”

    In October 2025, @eff warned the public that Flock was rolling out a new feature called “#DistressDetection ” that would be deployed through their acoustic gunshot detection devices (formerly known as #FlockRaven , now called #AudioDetection ). This feature purported to use high-powered #microphones scattered throughout a city to search for sounds of human distress, with original advertisements from the product indicating it would search for “#screaming.” (Since the publication of our original blog post, Flock quietly amended the ad on this webpage to say “distress” instead of “screaming.”)

  11. The #gunman, #RobertCard, was a #grenade instructor in the #ArmyReserve. In 2023, after 8 yrs of being exposed to thousands of skull-shaking blasts on the training range, he began hearing #voices & was stalked by #paranoid #delusions. He grew increasingly erratic & #violent in the months before the Oct rampage in #Lewiston, in which he killed 18 people & then himself.

  12. @TechDesk this was a great episode @davidpierce.

    Illustrated nicely the tension between the genuine utility of these systems vs all the ethical and governance problems they may create.

    What was also interesting how subjective it is to rate the authenticity of these #AI #voices, but it only takes one fake to get through to potentially cause havoc.

    Oh and of the many possible Dwight Schrute quotes, good choice! 😉 #theoffice #theofficeus
