This is one way to fight back against @flocksafety. Reverse engineer the eyes in the sky. We fully support Stegan0gram and their efforts.

Wapello County Iowa police have a written policy: don't tell anyone ALPR cameras tracked their car, don't mention it in reports unless forced to. How do defendants challenge evidence nobody admits was used?

Flock cameras are being destroyed across the country.

Apparently, “nationwide surveillance network” wasn’t the popularity boost they hoped for.

Cameras are being cut down, covered, and challenged, maybe it’s time to listen.

People have had enough.

@WLOS_13 Just one of many cities in NC taking advantage of citizens privacy. We document them all

Imagine building a nationwide surveillance network and your greatest weakness turns out to be a 77-year-old Florida man with a pool skimmer. 😂

No vandalism. No damage. Just a 12-foot “DOWN WITH FLOCK CAMERAS” sign and a public sidewalk.

Carl understands the assignment.

[Historic Vids @historyinmemes]

A Florida man found a legal loophole to block a Flock surveillance camera using a 12-foot-tall protest sign.

77-year-old Carl Gunn legally blocks a Flock license plate camera in St. Petersburg, Florida, by sitting on a public sidewalk and holding a 12-foot pool skimmer pole with a “DOWN WITH FLOCK CAMERAS” sign. Because he remains on public property and never touches the equipment, police confirmed his protest is lawful.

@NoDMsPerfavore We definitely don’t agree with the use of an ALPR camera system, Flock or Axon. We document cases everyday of police misuse and privacy being invaded.

Stand up to the overreach and fight back.

[Block Flock Now @BlockTheFlock]

@WallStreetApes These cameras are sold to cities as tools for finding stolen cars and catching dangerous criminals. But the list expands.

Today it’s speeding and traffic. What will these networks be used for tomorrow?

It isn’t just about Flock. It’s about how much surveillance is tolerated

[Block Flock Now @BlockTheFlock]

@neoconcarol You’ve just misread the situation Carol. No one is scared of flock cameras, we just don’t want them. The only criminals I see here are the daily cases of police misuse for their own personal gain.

[Block Flock Now @BlockTheFlock]

Ohio is definitely becoming a battleground in the Flock debate.

A grand jury declined to indict a man accused of destroying a Flock camera after he faced felony vandalism charges.

Opposition to Flock isn’t going away.

A Clermont County man who faced felony vandalism charges for allegedly destroying a Flock safety camera in Union Township has had his case dismissed.

Cody Morelock was accused of damaging the camera system located on Mount Carmel-Tobasco Road near Glenrose Lane on June 13, according to Union Township police.

Investigators claimed he removed the bolts holding the equipment in place, causing the camera, solar panel, and support pole to fall before he destroyed them.

Police said footage from other nearby cameras helped identify him as the suspect. The Flock camera was leased by the Union Township Police Department, and authorities estimated the damage at more than $1,000.

A Clermont County grand jury ultimately declined to indict Morelock on the felony charges.

Ohio is anti-Flock!

@JMC_Broadcast1 It’s real life footage of a new Flock camera being deployed. Big brother is everywhwre

[Block Flock Now @BlockTheFlock]

This is exactly why “trust us” isn’t enough.

A police officer allegedly used surveillance databases and ALPR cameras to track and stalk a woman.

The problem isn’t who owns the cameras. It’s who has access to the data, what they can do with it

[Jason Koebler @jason_koebler]

New: 404 Media obtained footage of investigation and arrest of a cop who used police surveillance databases and license plate cameras to surveil and stalk a woman.

"We’ve told them over and over again 'You see a hot chick, you don’t look them up in a database.'"

[Block Flock Now @BlockTheFlock]

This is exactly the kind of public pressure we need to see more of.

But the conversation has to go beyond Flock. Replacing Flock cameras with Axon or another ALPR network doesn’t solve the problem.

A petition calling for the removal of Flock license plate-reading cameras in York County has collected at least 880 signatures. https://t.co/s73txaHSXD

[Block Flock Now @BlockTheFlock]

@ABC We've documented 4 similar incidents in Massachusetts alone, and 33 cases nationally where officers misused license plate readers.

[Block Flock Now @BlockTheFlock]

@JSOPIO We've documented 12 incidents involving license plate readers in Florida since launching our project, including cases of police misuse and data-sharing concerns.

[Block Flock Now @BlockTheFlock]

@nypost This is just one of many cops misusing this system. Everyday we log and track cops across the country doing this. These are only the ones getting caught, if their patterns arent obvious they fly under the radar. ALPR in general is a slippery slope and we need real change.

[Block Flock Now @BlockTheFlock]

@rahul What good is your level of auditing when its being exploited daily? Your compnay put out a PR message about all these new guardrails but not once did you explain who and how the guardrails are enforced if they are abused. Just that you can. No real action.

[Block Flock Now @BlockTheFlock]

Just saying that there are guardrails doesnt actually stop the misuse. Just forces them to find new loopholes to exploit it. Looks like a PR response to the public forcing their hand.

[ABC News @ABC]

Flock Safety — a tech surveillance firm that makes AI-enabled cameras that scan and collect license plate information — announced new guardrails after multiple reports of abuse by law enforcement, and amid growing public backlash.

[Block Flock Now @BlockTheFlock]

@ABC So what happens when they dont follow the guardrails? What happens when they make up a case number? Who holds them accountable when they continue their misuse of it? Guardrails are useless if theres no policy governing them. Smells like PR fluff to me

[KWTX News 10 @kwtx]

#STATE: A North Texas county has shut down its network of Flock automated license plate reader cameras, saying the technology amounted to warrantless surveillance of residents going about their daily lives.
