Big Brother restores live feeds early during Week 7

tvAug 29, 202663894

Residents and activists are increasingly sabotaging Flock license-plate cameras nationwide in protest of what they call an expanding Big Brother surveillance state. Brady O’Rourke of Crystal, Minnesota, places a handwritten sign over a local pole-mounted Flock camera; NPR reports similar actions across about 36 states, including theft, vandalism, collisions, spray-painting and shooting. DeFlock, an anti-Flock group that maps the company’s footprint, counts more than 130,000 of the company’s plate readers on U.S. streets and says at least 100 cities have deactivated cameras or canceled contracts in response to public outcry. Flock says over 5,000 law enforcement agencies use its technology and has announced new privacy measures such as shorter data retention windows, mandatory misuse-detection tools and required case codes for every search. Investigations and prosecutions have illustrated misuse: Milwaukee officer Josue Ayala tracked a romantic partner 124 times and another person 55 times before resigning and pleading guilty, and Detective Tehrangi Chapman was later charged for related misuse; a Newsweek probe found alleged officer misuse in at least 12 states. Local officials are responding with audits and access restrictions, the Institute for Justice counts dozens of cases since 2024, and the cameras have become visible flashpoints in debates over local contracts and AI surveillance policy.

there comes a point when big brother stops feeling like big brother. this season has no heart. even last week’s celebratory eviction was in the icon’s favor. we almost had our moment tonight and lost it. now feeds will go down for three days for some bullshit. i love big brother, not this shit #bb28

I've been playing around tonight & resurrected the #BB2 section of the site I helped run during the early years (TvClubhouse / BigBrotherFanClub). If you're curious you can poke around. I've also attached a few sample pages. My name on the site was / is "Ryn" miketalksabout.com/archive/bigb...

I remember that site! and Bomis! I miss those days of info/followup posts from alums rather than self-promo and money grabs

Warning - there ARE broken links - its been 26 years after all. The site was hosted on "Bomis" and that site is long changed (it was owned by Jimmy Wales btw - and this was before he'd started Wikipedia!) bsky.app/profile/bbgo...

Barrett just said something to Dee about 'imagine the feeds just came back after two days off', and she was shocked. I assume he just figured it out. #bb28

@davidbloomberg.bsky.social

So #BB28 is celebrating 1000 episodes of Big Brother by NOT doing Big Brother — taking away voting and HOH and live feeds. Great idea. #BBSky

Just caught up on that 1000th episode thing. For the first time ever didn’t “spoil” myself but I should have. Nightmare BBBB/eviction scenario, ending with a big fuck you to the fans who can’t even do the Big Brother thing and watch feeds. “Thanks for keeping us on the air, go touch grass✨” #bb28

@bigbrothernetwork.bsky.social

Sounding more & more like another HG is out the door with the Medieval time trip last night. Sharon & Mike are scheduled for eviction interviews on Monday morning, after the Sunday episode reveals what happened. (And no, they don't know who!) bigbrothernetwork.com/big-brother-... #BB28 #bigbrother
