He has fallen into the trap of making constitutional decisions for himself and others rather than going through the proper channels and so they might well throw the book at him.

Yes, I know "the proper channels" will do their very best to ignore, deny or obfuscate as long as they can in order to avoid the question of constitutionality (or legality) of such systems, and that's why he did it, but he might have had a slightly better defence if he'd at least tried to sue or challenge Flock's existence and use by less destructive means before doing this.

Edit: Based on the number of downvotes, it seems like a lot of people know something I don't. The only comment that suggests anything at all though, provides exactly the same amount of evidence that I have for my point of view than they do for theirs.
