Flock Noir - IR Flock Detection Buzzer Test
The short version: A hobbyist builder demos an IR-based buzzer that claims to detect Flock Safety cameras, hinting at a DIY countermeasure market growing around ALPR surveillance.
Our Take
Valleytech Custom Solutions is tinkering with something a lot of our readers have been asking for: a cheap, physical way to know when you're rolling past a Flock Safety camera. The idea of an IR-triggered buzzer is simple, but it points to a bigger trend — regular people building their own detection tools because neither the cameras nor the agencies deploying them are required to tell you they're there.
We can't vouch for the reliability of any single DIY gadget, and demo footage isn't the same as a peer-reviewed test. But the appetite for projects like this says plenty about where public trust is right now: people don't want to just accept that every intersection might be logging their plate, their location, and their travel patterns into a database they never consented to and can't opt out of.
If you'd rather start with documentation than electronics, check our camera map to see what's already been spotted near you, and visit take action for ways to push back on ALPR expansion in your own city.
