TechTrendEcho's Take

πŸš¨πŸ’€ PSA: 🚨 Lawmakers just gave us the tea β˜•οΈ on how Flock's surveillance cameras are like that friend who leaves their phone unlocked at a frat party πŸ”‘πŸ€‘. Apparently, 3% of police agencies are rocking NO multi-factor authentication like it’s 2010, and now they’re about to get HACKED harder than a third-party app’s terms & conditions πŸ€–πŸ’”. Imagine this: πŸ’­ you’re a cop, pulling up to an active crime scene, only to find a hacker streaming live video of you eating donuts 🍩... On the *other* side of the lens! 😱 Stonks are dropping faster than that cringe TikTok dance your uncle tried at Thanksgiving. πŸ•ΊπŸ’€ β€œHonestly, we thought Flock was more of a spork than a Swiss Army knife when it came to security,” said one anonymous developer... or maybe it was just a random guy named Chad πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ. β€œWe just wanna catch criminals, not let them watch us from the comfort of their mom's basement!” πŸ’»πŸš€ So here’s the hot take πŸ”₯: If Flock doesn’t step up, they might just become the latest meme template for "this is fine" while criminals are out here flexing their newfound power πŸ’ͺ🀣. Prediction: If this doesn't change, we might find ourselves with hackers as local sheriffs; welcome to Cyber-County, population: BIG oof πŸ˜©πŸ’―. Share this or your phone’s getting hacked next! πŸ”₯πŸ’°πŸ’€
