  I looked up the flock cameras near me and they are all at home depot and lowe's, like many of them covering the whole parking lot. We don't have day labor here so i what why there specifically! Maybe those companies signed up for them at all of their stores? super creepy i'm glad i know where they are now im going to avoid them!
