People Are Destroying Flock Cameras — Here's Why
The short version: DiventionTechnologies' reaction video spotlights growing public scrutiny of Flock and Axon cameras, and we think that curiosity is exactly the point.
Our Take
DiventionTechnologies isn't picking up a wrench here — they're reacting to someone else's camera inspection and using it to ask the right questions: what are these Flock and Axon systems actually built to do, and why are they popping up on utility poles without a public vote? That's the same question we ask every day. The fact that ordinary people are now pausing to look closely at the boxes bolted above their streets is a sign the "quiet rollout" strategy Flock relies on is losing its grip.
We don't endorse property destruction, and neither does this video — it's framed as commentary, not instruction. But the underlying frustration is real and valid. When a private company's ALPR network can track your movements block by block with zero community vote, zero audit, and a vague promise of "public safety," people start looking for any way to push back, legal or not. The smarter move is turning that energy into documentation and public pressure: find out where these cameras are, who approved them, and demand the retention and sharing policies in writing.
That's the work we try to make easier. Check our camera map to see what's already watching your neighborhood, and head to our take-action page for templates and steps to get Flock contracts in front of your city council instead of under a camera lens.
