Discussion of Flock and other "automated license plate readers", surveillance cameras that take pictures of license plates (and also sometimes the rest of the car, occupants, and bystanders) and store them to be searched by law enforcement, ICE, and CBP

ACLU of San Diego & Imperial Counties Everyone has the right to move freely without being surveilled. Last Tuesday, PANA, represented by ACLUF-SDIC, filed a complaint against the City of San Diego and the San Diego Police Department in response to the city’s unconstitutional automated license plate reader (ALPR) system.
404 Media Body cam footage obtained by 404 Media reveals the first Flock camera searches ruled unconstitutional by a federal judge, and highlights how the system has turned otherwise mundane traffic stops into interrogations for drivers. @jasonkoebler.bsky.social scopp here: www.404media.co/watch-footag...
DeFlock Redmond A really good Flock guide! ✅ "The reach of the system comes from what happens after the picture ... the hardware is the on-ramp, not the destination. Every device is like a prison watch tower, constantly watching whether you have done anything ‘wrong‘ or not." flocksurveillance.org/complete-flo...

DeFlock Metro Detroit Yes, ALPRs can help some investigations. That still leaves separate questions about broader crime effects, retention, access, sharing, errors, cost and oversight. Utility is one question. Accountability is another. https://dfmd.org/bsky1 #Privacy
DeFlock Metro Detroit How much do you know about the surveillance technology around your community? ALPRs can record plate, time, location and vehicle details. Local rules can vary. Learn what the system does, check the records, and decide for yourself. https://dfmd.org/bsky1 #Privacy
American Civil Liberties Union of Ohio While Flock Safety is the corporation currently facing widespread public scrutiny – for good reason – the existential threat to our freedom goes well beyond one company or one type of technology. 📝https://action.aclu.org/petition/end-mass-surveillance-ohio
