Flock Safety Investigating Mass Surveillance, Police Stops #whenweallvote #interview #news
The short version: Epic Muse's interview-style roundup adds another voice to the growing chorus questioning why Flock Safety's ALPR network operates with so little public oversight.
Our Take
Credit to Epic Muse for pulling together commentary from creators like TommyG and Benn Jordan to put Flock Safety back in front of a wider audience. Every video like this matters because most Americans still have no idea that a private company's cameras are quietly logging their movements block by block, often without any local vote or public debate before installation.
We can't verify every specific claim made in the video since we weren't given the transcript, but the broader pattern it points to is real and well-documented: automated license plate readers feeding data into shared networks that police, and sometimes other agencies, can query with little transparency about audits, retention, or misuse. That's the exact dynamic we track at DeFlock — not because we think every officer is acting in bad faith, but because infrastructure like this outlives any one department's intentions once it's built.
If this video has you wondering whether there's a Flock camera already clocking your plate, check our camera map to see what's been documented near you, and if you want to push back locally, our take-action page has concrete steps for raising this at a city council meeting before the next contract renewal sails through unnoticed.
This is DeFlock The USA’s original commentary. The video above is the work of Epic Muse, published on YouTube — full credit to the creator.
