Flock Camera Cancellation ✊🏽
The short version: A creator called PeekAboo-AI Surveillance highlights communities packing town halls and organizing to push back on Flock ALPR contracts, echoing the grassroots pressure campaigns we track.
Our Take
Credit where it's due: PeekAboo-AI Surveillance is spotlighting something we see in city council minutes across the country — ordinary residents showing up, asking hard questions, and in some cases getting Flock Safety contracts reconsidered or outright cancelled. That's not a fluke. It's what happens when people realize a private company's camera network is logging every car that passes through their town, with little public debate before the ink dries.
We don't have the receipts to vouch for every claim in this video, and we're not going to pretend we do. But the broader trend it's pointing to is real: local elected officials are discovering that 'public safety tool' doesn't automatically mean 'no accountability,' and constituents are learning that contracts can be renegotiated or killed when enough voices show up at the podium. That's the whole game — surveillance infrastructure gets normalized in the dark, and it gets rolled back in the light.
If your town has cameras you didn't know about, that's step one to fix. Check our map to see what's already been deployed near you, and if you're ready to organize your own pushback, our take-action page has the playbook other communities used to get a hearing — and sometimes a cancellation — of their own.
