The fact that Flock operates a service that undermines and endangers society as well as innocent individuals is a thing they might want to distance themselves from, but they can't. Flock (and similar services) presents a real threat to us all.

The greatest tech companies haven’t let the government dictate their ambitions toward disruption. The resignation described by the flock CEO suggests to me maybe he doesn’t have the right mindset for success?

Langley is optimizing for enterprise value above all else, Flock is not going to do the right thing out of the goodness of their heart. "Don't anthropomorphize the lawnmower." Schrödinger’s Enterprise Agency: great when we want to be great, helpless when we want to be helpless.

Their valuation is a direct function of how much corporate surveillance apparatus they sell to various layers of government.
