Is there any evidence or other form of justification for the Flock CEO's claims about how it is responsible for SF's crime downturn? I find it hard to believe that Flock cameras are at the heart of such a wide-ranging effect. I am not a local, and I have only done a cursory search, but I don't see the elected officials making the same claim -- I have seen them say it has more to do with changing socioeconomic factors.

>like San Francisco, where crime is incredibly hard to get away with—so hard that people just choose not to do it.

hilarious.

Exactly, the charge rates for the type of crime he was talking about (stealing from cars) are still incredibly bad, his claims are incredibly suspect.
