Flock Cameras Exposed: Traffic Tickets, ALPRs, and Vehicle Surveillance

Flock cameras and automated license plate readers are often sold as tools for finding stolen cars, wanted suspects, missing people, and serious threats. But a 404 Media report about police allegedly using a Flock camera image for a traffic ticket shows how quickly public-safety surveillance can expand into everyday enforcement. In this episode, Tom, Kevin, and Scott discuss ALPR mission creep, traffic enforcement, retention, data sharing, audit logs, vendor swaps, rideshare dashcam surveillance proposals, and device-tracking risks.
