How many of us have had coworkers who put something like that into a commit message? And that's a message that's at least notionally supposed to be helpful to you or your coworkers, rather than existing purely for the purposes of oversight you don't want in the first place.

I would expect law enforcement coworkers to understand the law, department procedure, and public requests for their data. That’s expecting too much from the academy, I guess.

Those that fail to meet standards should be fired to spare the taxpayers from the lawsuits coming from AI-assisted complainants.

It’s also too much for Flock’s YC-funded technology to implement a field filter that rejects “LMAO” as a valid request.

At the very least, your local staff’s nationwide stalking credentials being harvested by phishing and abused by others should carry criminal negligence penalties. Governments should pass that liability onto this YC-funded startup company.
