Does anyone know what the financial limit is for these companies? Like flock has to be losing more than they are making at this point. Even the one in my neighborhood has been replaced at least once a week.
From what I've seen, Flock isn't on the hook for the cost of replacing, the county/local government is the one purchasing them, Flock is making a pretty penny from it.
What does hurt them though is that it's pushing more of these local governments to drop their contract with Flock (and probably move to another company like Axon).
Why not twice a week? Hell, three times even. Be a real shame if they had to replace it every day.
