Our upriver friends with @troyindivisible.bsky.social are leading the charge to rid the Collar City of the scourge of 26 Flock cameras that pepper that City’s streets. We’re proud to stand beside them this Thursday as the Troy City Council considers whether to renew Troy’s Flock contract.

Flock's Hot Lists are a Hot Mess 800 custom hotlist entries from a Texas constable's office reveal vague reasons, indefinite surveillance, and instructions to manufacture probable cause.

"There is no mechanism to discover which agencies are using what custom hotlists, or for a person to discover whether they are on a custom hotlist, to challenge their inclusion, or to request removal. There is no judicial review, no expiration requirement, and no independent audit."

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.

Legislators reject Flock’s first political donations in California Campaign representatives for two Democratic lawmakers said they'd return the money amid concerns that Flock’s data could be accessed by ICE investigators.

"The timing of Flock’s state contributions coincides with the return of multiple bills in the California Legislature that the company lobbied on last year."

Overlooked this when it originally released, but it's a good conversation.

First Came the Pink Paint, Then Came Questions About Surveillance - The New Pine Plains Herald Markings for automatic license-plate reader cameras unsettled Pine Plains residents and officials, who said no contract had been granted to Flock Safety, a multibillion-dollar surveillance company.

A victory for community vigilance and local journalism over an attempt to sneakily install dragnet #surveillance infrastructure in a small town! 🏆

There are shorter summaries, but these are the original local reporting and are well worth the time to read.

We can't praise everyone who came out to #DeFlock Lakewood enough. Because whether they're speaking for the first time or they come to every city council meeting (2nd & 4th Tuesdays 7:30pm at Lakewood Centre fyi), each and every person puts their whole heart into it. 28/

So why is Lakewood City Council so reluctant to #DeFlock our city? Why the eagerness to fund surveillance to spy on its own people?

Because the city wouldn't be putting up its own money for this. 19/

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/

SB 6002, the Driver Privacy Act, passes the legislature – Washington Privacy Organizers

Hugely disappointing! 👎

This is not a win for the people of Washington and fails to deliver the protections we sought.

It codifies mass #surveillance with 21 (!!) day retention for non-hits, adds carve-out exemptions, and removes oversight via public records. 😩

We will fight on!

Why Flock cameras are ALWAYS rammed through as "emergencies"
Why Flock cameras are ALWAYS rammed through as "emergencies" YouTube video by Louis Rossmann

"There's a reason that #Flock is so interested in hiring the mayors and the city council members of all of these cities that they want to install cameras into ... it's because they want to jam this #surveillance technology down your throat whether you like it or not."

"Flock cameras reverse a core principle of liberty: The presumption of innocence. Instead of investigating specific suspects, they collect and store everyone’s movements “just in case.” This is not targeted policing; it is ambient monitoring."

This company, Flock Safety, based in Atlanta, Georgia, is tracking your license plate in every city and state you visit. And sharing your every movement with the government. Is this even legal? I think not.

Flock vs. FOIA: The Suppression Manual Flock coaches police on denying records requests, inserts itself into the legal process, and sells a 'transparency portal' its own staff calls useless.

"Flock’s document goes through every category of public record related to its system to identify possible exemptions, suggesting ones for police investigations, security exceptions, and privacy reasons. Throw exemptions at the requester and see what sticks."
