    However, the movement is uncoordinated, with no clear organizer or indication of how many people actually intend to participate.

    Literally the entire point

    Calling all werewolves, witches, and kpop demon hunters— get your masks on and bring your spray foam. Be safe though, don’t eat any candy that looks opened.

    Kinda brilliant, ngl

    All the doorbell camera recordings are triggered by motion, so if the cops want to try to track someone they’re gonna have to ingest a meric fuck ton of video. Even if they can AI to victory just the logistics of obtaining it all will be prohibitive.

    The only problem with that idea is that no one goes trick or treating any more.

      My neighborhood is in a big city but still single-family, and we’ve recently started getting a lot more trick-or-treaters over the last few years because it’s been gentrifying and a lot of the young couples who moved in started having kids.

      I bet a lot of flock cameras exist in areas where there may be lots of foot traffic, like bars or in college towns, anywhere that may be a house party.

      My wife and I had 40 trick or treaters last year, my buddy a city over counted 55. It might just be there’s not young kids around your area

        Wow, yeah it could depend on the area. I haven’t seen any in at least 10 years around here.
