Surveillance company Flock sent a cease-and-desist letter telling a private group to stop discussing surveillance tech

Flock threatens to sue a private group in Southern California that meets regularly to hold discussions and Q&As about diplomacy, law, and philosophy.

It demands that they do not "analyze" or "speculate" on the security vulnerabilities we've confirmed when talking about government surveillance.
