Vigilante movement targets Flock surveillance cameras

“The Guardian has identified at least 33 instances of people damaging, vandalizing and destroying Flock cameras, across 23 states, that appear to have the explicit message of protesting surveillance.”

In "just a matter of months" 18 Georgia law enforcement officers have been arrested for misusing data from Flock Safety systems, which combine data from license plate readers into a searchable database.

19th cop in Georgia charged with misusing surveillance system. "...a supervisor with the Conyers police... Real-Time Crime Center... was arrested for allegedly misusing the Flock license plate reader system over 30 times to search for her domestic partner’s car..." reason.com/2026/07/24/g...

AI-powered cameras owned by a company named Flock are appearing around the country and pose a threat to our privacy. DeFlock is an organization fighting against Big Brother-style surveillance. Take a look at their website for resources and to join the National Week of Action.

"Flock Public Affairs Manager Ian Leslie said during the meeting that Flock would be & has been willing to take long, hard look at those who use its cameras incorrectly or outside the scope of purview." "the council then voted to terminate the contract" 🤣 www.southtexasnews.com/san_patricio...

Flock has expanded their product line from scanners to drones. Flock started partnering with Aerodome to launch "Flock Alpha," an autonomous drone that launches on its own when a 911 call comes in, a gunshot's detected, or one of Flock's plate readers gets a hit. #Flock #Axon #Surveillance

"We’re increasingly seeing #Flock (& other) cameras along remote trailheads in the #Rockies and the #PNW, deep in fire country. An e-bike worth of batteries sits 12 feet up on a pole, where physical defects would go unnoticed, installed w/o DOT inspection or any meaningful permit process." #deflock

Did you watch @jacobsoboroff.bsky.social report on this? The part where the data from these cameras was found to have searches for things like cars with "no Kings" bumperstickers! youtu.be/HuOKqt2Gq4c?...

Screw his "privacy". Where the hell was your outrage when all the damn FLOCK cameras started popping up? Sue this dolt.

Scrolling through my list of to-dos in preparation for the coming semester and realized that "make a fuss about Flock cameras being everywhere on campus, despite state law banning cooperation with ICE" has unfortunately dropped a couple spots due to the administrivia already filling my inbox.
