Dan Cox on Technology

 

 


Stop Flock cameras as unconstitutional policing

Dan Cox believes firmly in personal privacy for all individuals and will stop the rapid implementation of Flock surveillance. Flock cameras are not Constitutional policing; they are illegal stalking which have already caused so many innocent individuals to be prosecuted for crimes they never committed. Dan Cox will support lawful policing and ensure that our law enforcement officers have the accountability and resources they need for ensuring safe communities.

I've called for a moratorium on data centers

Q: You both initially embraced data centers. Mr. Cox you supported a tax exemption and Mr. Moore you signed an executive order to rein in new data centers and guidelines when it comes to the energy they are using but both of you have shifted positions.

Cox: The data centers of seven years ago are not those of today. This governor super charged a data center that is 20 super Walmart size, and he took a $24,000 donation from the data center, the lobbyist Perry Jacobson, he fast tracked a permit. That is not a data center producing its own power. We have a power grid problem and brownouts beginning to happen. And instead this governor is focused on his political connections and on what brings in the most support for his campaign. I will do something different. I've called for a moratorium.

Moore: Data centers need to bring their own energy and power and not polluting our air or water, need to hire local union workers. Data centers do not get to write the rules.
