Police out here using Flock cameras like it’s their own personal “Who’s My Ex Dating” app. And we’re supposed to trust this with zero guardrails? Protect and serve who — their ego? Their drama? Communities deserve better than surveillance soap operas. #Wisconsin #Flock #Milwaukee #Accountability
Why #Flock cameras are ALWAYS rammed through as "emergencies" youtu.be/vuQqNkYgVqE #LouisRosmann #politics #masssurveillance #fascism
You have learned this last election that politicians and lobbying have bad outcomes for consumers. Call now, stop #flock and the #oligarchy from knowing your every move. If you don't #resist there will be no stopping the #authoritarian takeover in the US. Stop mass surveillance now!
A tremendous community turnout against #Flock with all 12 in-person speakers asking for it go!
Unfortunately, the motion to turn off and cover the cameras until the end of the contract (Nov 2026) failed 4-3.
Comments are up first. Vote discussion starts at 2 hrs 50.

#Flock : entre folie et vrai divan de psy
Cities across the nation are cutting ties with the Atlanta-based police tech firm #Flock after revelations that Trump’s #Gestapo have repeatedly gained access to its data. #AbolishICE #Palantir
Obviously not the #Richmond PD

Here's the full video from the #Redmond Police Technology Update study session on 3/10.
Presentation order

2. Drones

Unfortunately there is no direct link to the questioning, but it starts at 29 mins and lasts a further 1 hr 20 mins.
"a contract authorizing the installation of #Flock Safety #surveillance cameras across the town had been signed nearly a year ago — a disclosure that contradicted earlier statements by Supervisor Brian Walsh that no such agreement existed."

"The dog latched onto Upchurch's dreadlocks, rammed his head into the ground, and sunk its teeth in his arm. Your car has a stolen license plate on it, one of the officers said. The license plates weren't stole. He was the truck's registered owner." #Flock www.businessinsider.com/flock-safety...
A Florida deputy met a woman on the set of Bad Monkey, added her license plate to a police hotlist, then nearly caused a head-on collision speeding to pull her over. This is what surveillance tools look like without oversight.

This fucking wacko fascist can eat a bag of dicks.
"To make this work" who the fuck WANTS this technology, only the fucking technofascists like Palantir.
Fuck #Flock and #Palantir
On Tuesday March 24 our city council votes yes/no on paying for a 5-year contract with a company whose abuse and overreach make it the worst choice in the field. #Flock is dangerous. #Flock is not safe. #Flock doesn't care about laws or privacy, it wants to get rich mining your life for data. 29/
If you have thoughts about Lakewood, about surveillance, about #Flock and about privacy, please come to the next city council meeting and see who else in this city gives enough of a damn to sit through a parade of bureaucracy every 2nd and 4th Tuesday at City Hall. Because the next one matters. 29/
Lakewood deserves better than #Flock. We can't say it any better than she did. Our city is worth more than being a profit center for this type of mass surveillance of everyday life. 27/
After hearing this endless parade of #Flock chaos, you'd think anyone would be persuaded that they're dangerous and deceptive. And our city council did decide to discontinue the use of the audio detection program, which we were pleased with. But it's time to jettison all of it. 26/
We've said that the alarm over #Flock and its practices only grows the more you learn about it. The longer these meetings go on while the contract is still a possibility, the more we hear that horrifies us. 25/
This speaker shook us. In the missing beginning part she introduced herself as a lawyer who specializes in data and cyber security. Then she told us all why she sees #Flock as a danger to our community. 24/
There's no such thing as your friendly local surveillance apparatus. We do not consider #Flock welcome in Lakewood because its values and practices are antithetical to our values and our lives. Our right to live our lives in privacy should not be sold out. 23/

Over 30 cities have ended their #Flock contracts since 2025. We heard this week that Oxnard suspended its Flock program after the company illegally shared data in violation of CA law. Why continue to pursue this company? Why try to recover anything from this trainwreck of a business? 21/
Lakewood got a $2 million grant from Rep. Robert Garcia's office to buy LPR (license plate reader) cameras for the city. #Flock had the best sales pitch. And it's anyone who lives in or travels through Lakewood who pays the real cost. 20/
The longer we do this the more people we hear from who know enough about surveillance to have serious concerns about #Flock. Nobody learns more about this company and thinks better of them. Nobody. 18/
Lakewood City Council has delayed their vote on #Flock again, giving us one last chance to report back to them. There's no shortage of new horror stories about how dangerous and untrustworthy this company is and how our data should be nowhere near it. 17/
But it's time to act. The residents of Lakewood have been coming to warn our representatives of the dangers of #Flock every meeting for months now. We tell them about new dangers that have been uncovered by the press at every meeting! It never ends! It's time to #DeFlock Lakewood. 16/
See, the city council has heard enough to doubt #Flock Safety is all that safe. They were supposed to vote on adopting Flock after the six month trial period ended. That vote has been pushed back twice. Which is good! Hearing your constituents out is the minimum of what we expect. 15/
Apologies to this speaker who we accidentally cut off. She did an amazing job outing #Flock. We're sorry people won't get to see her whole speech.
Did you notice the camerawoman sitting dead center doing nothing? The city shuts off cameras for open public comment so you get our amateur work. 14/
It's time to vote #Flock out of Lakewood. We all know it. We've provided enough information about Flock Safety's misbehavior and abuses to write a dissertation. There's no good reason to support this company. And the council understands that. 13/
