The short version: A sparse, hashtag-stuffed clip from AfterWILD tags Flock Safety alongside dogs and squirrels, underscoring how little public documentation exists for these cameras in Colorado's 303/970 area codes.
Our Take
This one's a grab bag — a title full of area codes, pet names, and a squirrel, with "flocksafety" and "flock" tucked into the hashtag soup. There's no real breakdown of camera placement, policy, or footage analysis here, just a glancing reference from a channel (AfterWILD) that otherwise seems focused on dogs and backyard wildlife. We're not going to pretend there's a deep surveillance exposé buried in a video about a dog named Olivia and a squirrel.
But that's actually the point worth making: Flock Safety's brand has become so ubiquitous that it shows up as a tag on totally unrelated content, almost like a location stamp. When a company's camera network is so widespread that its name functions as background noise in a random Colorado pet video, that's a sign of how normalized automated license plate readers have become in everyday life — often without residents ever being told where the cameras are, who's reviewing the data, or how long it's kept.
If you're in the 303 or 970 area codes and want to know what's actually watching your street, don't rely on stray hashtags — check our camera map for documented ALPR locations near you, and if you want to push back on secretive deployments, our take-action page has concrete steps for getting answers from local officials.
