00:00I've gotta agree with Ron DeSantis on this one. I'm not really the biggest fan of these
00:06flat cameras. Not even in the slightest bit. Yeah, I know they say, well, they help out
00:12with solving crime. I'm not willing to sacrifice privacy for crime. How about we just stop
00:21defunding the police maybe? Just a thought. Just a thought. We don't need to put cameras
00:27everywhere. Just saying. These cameras, the license plate readers, I think it's out of
00:33control. And this is something that in Florida, you know, our highway patrol, we have readers
00:40for like tolling by plate and things like that. Now, I've never supported the automatic
00:45tickets being sent if you're speeding. I think a human being has to do that. And so I've never
00:51embraced that. And so this was something that was kind of out there in that vein. And then
00:59with this whole flock situation, it's now being used not for tolling by plate or things like
01:06that, but for actual criminal surveillance. And so these are done by police departments
01:11and sheriff's departments by and large. I've asked for an overview of what's going on in
01:16state agencies. There are some, but it's a lot smaller than what we have at the local
01:20level. And so I'm all about having law enforcement have tools to be able to hold criminals accountable.
01:30I think that's important that we do that. And no one's been stronger on law enforcement than
01:34me. But I don't want to have this become a surveillance state. I don't want there to be
01:41a situation. And that's why we wanted an AI Bill of Rights. Remember, we were pushing for
01:45that. Because the flock is artificial intelligence. So whether it's online, with digital surveillance,
01:55or whether it's with cameras, at what point are we just going to be free to be not have
02:01to deal with any of that? And so I think it needs to be overhauled for sure. I know New
02:07Hampshire did something that really kept it. It's interesting. They put something in a bill
02:12about using them on state. So the sheriffs and the police can use it on state right-of-ways.
02:21And I asked Jared, I said, well, what is the state involved? State doesn't get any of the
02:25information or anything. It's just like they're doing it. So we don't even really know, you know,
02:29like the police department or whatever. And when I see like a police officer using this to track like
02:35an ex-girlfriend, I'm like, you know, what the hell's going on, you know, with this? So I think this
02:39has happened very quickly. I think people are right to be concerned. I wanted an AI Bill of Rights
02:45that could have addressed this and others, other issues. The Senate passed a product and the House
02:53in Florida, they wouldn't even, they wouldn't even.
