GET THE FLOCK OUTTA HERE! | Pop Rock Version | It Is Our Duty

Our Take

When surveillance criticism starts showing up as a pop rock single, you know the message has broken containment. "It Is Our Duty" took the growing frustration with Flock Safety's license plate readers and set it to a hook you can't shake — "Get the Flock Outta Here!" It's a clever move: policy briefings and city council meetings rarely reach the people who'll actually be affected by a camera on their street, but a catchy chorus might.

The song leans into a point we hammer on constantly — these devices are marketed as simple "license plate readers," but the data they generate paints a much bigger picture of who's driving where, when, and how often. That gap between the friendly branding and the actual surveillance capability is exactly why grassroots pushback keeps growing, whether it's delivered through a city council speech or a three-minute pop rock track.

Credit to the creator for turning a wonky infrastructure fight into something shareable and fun — that kind of cultural pressure matters just as much as policy testimony.
