#Deflock Camouflage that defeats Flock and Axon

Our Take

Jordan Jereb's video digs into the DIY-camouflage rabbit hole that keeps popping up around Flock Safety and Axon gear — sprays, covers, and materials people hope will blind a plate reader. We're not going to pretend we've independently verified whatever specific method he demonstrates, and neither should you before trying it: image-recognition systems get updated constantly, and a trick that works on one camera generation may be useless on the next. Treat any "defeats ALPRs" claim, ours included, with healthy skepticism.

What the video really captures is the mood driving this whole niche: people are tired of feeling tracked block by block and are looking for any lever they can pull. That instinct is valid, but individual evasion tactics don't scale, and some carry legal risk depending on your state's plate-obstruction laws. The more durable lever is knowing where these networks actually sit in your town and pushing back through public records requests, city council meetings, and vendor contract reviews — the places where Flock's footprint gets decided.

Credit to Jereb for keeping the conversation about surveillance countermeasures visible, even if a can of spray isn't the fix. If you want to see how dense the camera network is where you live, check our map, and if you're ready to do something more permanent than camouflage, our take-action page has the tools to challenge these systems directly.
