The fact that this is unintentionally self-referential makes it even more funny.

Flock cameras are only 93% accurate. There were 533,936 missing persons reports in 2024. If we had flock cameras everywhere doing what you propose, that would generate 37,375 false leads. If even one of them was wrongly convicted because of it, I would say the bad outweighs the good.

1. I think The Amazing Digital Circus is not worth it for society to have a 4 trillon dollar company sell behavior modification services that target children. So yea, it would be a net positive for society.
