The [Flock] camera’s logs also show the camera struggling with storage. Its logs recorded more than 27,000 “no space left on device” errors while trying to save full-resolution images, along with tens of thousands of related errors, crashes, and reboots. At the same time, about every two minutes, code checked that the camera was still running and logged the message, “Who’s a good boy?!” More than 12,000 of those messages appear in the recovered logs.

When the camera did restart, another service left a final message in the logs: “A reboot was requested! ¡Adios Amigos!”

May your stupid debug messages never appear in an investigative journalism article. 😌
