OK.
Where is the dragnet?
OK.
Where is the dragnet?
Flock is a dragnet. It allows police to coordinate around apprehending suspects, which is the definition of dragnet, if you look at any dictionary.
>I don't believe you are actually asking this is good faith.
Well assume it, those are the rules.
Apprehending suspects is most certainly not the definition of a dragnet. This is precisely my point. Apprehending people indiscriminately is the definition of a dragnet. Stopping a specific person for something that isnt a crime may not be legal but its not a dragnet.
Do you understand why flock is not a dragnet now?
Not all stock is publicly traded. I own stock that you can't buy on the exchange. It's quite common actually.
That said, to answer your question, you could own Flock stock. Private companies often offer stock to employees and others.
