Flock Cameras Are Doing WHAT Across The U.S.? (Massive Privacy Warning)

Join @IAMTALLBOY & Hurricane Dave as they discuss the latest tech news for the week of June 17, 2026 on The Lab Tech Show. We explore what’s next in technology, simplify complex topics, and keep it real. In this episode, we explore the controversial evolution of Flock Safety cameras. These devices are no longer just reading license plates; they are now using AI to track clothing descriptions, vehicle dents, and even the sound of gunshots or distress. We also discuss the rise of decentralized computing where startups want to pay you to host mini AI data centers in your home. Could a server in your house really pay your bills, or is the fire risk and noise too much to handle? We also break down the new TSA Gold Plus initiative which aims to replace federal screeners with private firms to avoid government shutdown delays. Plus, we look at the global movement to ban social media for users under 16 in countries like the UK and Australia. Stick around for our word of the day, wifty, and a hands-on look at portable power solutions like the EcoFlow for when the grid goes down.
