I thought these cameras were only used to read license plates. What happened to that discussion?
They are. These aren't Flock cameras. The post is a lie, but it's one people want to believe.
When I was a kid twisting a swing so you could ride it as it untwisted was something that happend dozens of times every recess. This was something every kid did. If your playground equipment falls apart as a result of the standard way kids use a swing then I think that is a manufacture issue not criminal behavior by a 10 year old

"The borough also says visitors encounter its "Play Smart Rules" when entering the park, including a specific instruction: "Do not twist chains."" So the town buys crappy swings, knowing full well that kids are going to spin them (who hasn't done this a million times as a kid?) Then they slap up a sign telling the kids not to do that. Basically entrapmen…
'Children tend to swing on their stomach. This behavior should be discouraged.'
Not banned, discouraged.
I recommend reading the whole thing, it is surprisingly well done and covers a lot of things that should be obvious but are easy to forget.

The content creator is using "Flock" as a shorthand for all surveillance cameras, which muddies the conversation.
Is everyone going to ignore that those are not Flock cameras? Why is the quality of discussion on this topic on HN so poor? I'm not even pro-Flock, but a blatantly false post like this is just pathetic discourse.
poor quality of HN discussion -- that's something not with thinking about. Flag the submission and move on.
Earlier quoted context omitted.

If the town feels that arresting children is a good use of public money they that's their right. At some point the citizens have to actually care about how their town operates if they want it to get better. Most townspeople care about UX as much as f2p mobile shovelware developers.
TF? Doesn't your country have a Constitution?
