I think it's a fair deal so long as you can't escape to Utah/Idaho/Colorado when you realize the dystopia you've created isn't the kind of place you want to raise a family.

Great idea: make it a crime to move away from Flock-laden neighborhoods once you put your name on a petition to have them installed. See how quickly they short-circuit.

  • Some generalized version would work great for to keep people from peddling all sorts of short sighted stuff. I have no idea how to do it. This sort of "must have skin in the game" criteria was what the founding fathers were trying to do with the property owning requirement (but that was so imperfect they started undermining it pretty much before the ink was dry).

Are you serious? The people most pushing for this are precisely the ones trying to raise a family.
