Our Take

We don't usually cover music drops, but when a song titled "FLOCK CAMERAS ARE TOOLS OF THE ANTICHRIST" shows up in our feed, we're obligated to pay attention. Corey Bennz isn't writing a policy brief here — it's a fuzzed-out, Deftones-flavored vent session — but the instinct behind it is the same one driving neighborhood Facebook groups, city council meetings, and op-eds nationwide: people feel like these cameras showed up uninvited and now quietly track their every move.

You don't need to buy the apocalyptic framing to get the point. Flock Safety's ALPR network has spread into thousands of communities with little public debate, often approved in a single council vote with minimal scrutiny of retention policies, data sharing agreements, or who gets access to the logs of where you drive. When a song can distill that unease into a hook faster than most local reporters can file a FOIA request, it says something about how normalized — and how resented — this surveillance has become.

If the track scratched an itch, channel it into something more useful than a shrug. Check our map to see if Flock cameras are already clocking your plate, and hit up take action for concrete steps to push back at the local level. No divine intervention required — just public records requests and a city council willing to listen.
