And it's not an accident that Flock cameras were implicated in many ICE raids at Home Depot and Lowe's, either.

Was that because of the cameras, or because illegal day laborers have been known to congregate in home center parking lots for 30+ years.

Then surely they're being used to bust the people hiring them, too ... Right?

My Home Depot, on the north coast, was selling off cases of Jarritos a few months ago. They very much cater to the day laborers.

I disagree, I see them all over the place, it is due to shoplifting.

It is also due to shoplifting. They wouldn't get deployed if nobody could justify them in any way.
