      I see that sentiment, with zero sarcasm, all over Nextdoor.

      How the heck did local neighborhood social media become full of paranoid morons?

        People, generally, are paranoid morons. Calmly processing the facts and assessing risk are the rare exception. Even people who are good at that kind of thing are first making an irrational decision, and then justifying it after the fact.

        The solution isn’t to fact-check them about Flock having no inpact on their safety. The solution is to fear-monger even harder about cameras seeing into their houses, and a private company selling their data to telemarketers.
