Flock safety employees are spying on our children #news #breakingnews #flockcameras
The short version: The Robb Carter Show raises alarm about Flock Safety staff allegedly misusing ALPR access, spotlighting the insider-threat risk baked into private surveillance networks.
Our Take
The Robb Carter Show is digging into something we've flagged before: Flock Safety isn't just a camera company, it's a private data broker sitting on billions of vehicle scans, and every scan is only as safe as the employees and police departments who can query it. Whether or not every detail in this particular video holds up, the underlying concern is legitimate — a nationwide license-plate database controlled by a single vendor creates exactly the kind of insider-access risk that privacy advocates have warned about for years.
Flock's own audit tools and "reasonable suspicion" search policies are supposed to prevent abuse, but policy is not the same as enforcement, and company employees retain far more backend access than most residents realize. When the people watching the watchers are themselves unaccountable to the public, trust collapses fast — especially when the subjects of that surveillance include children simply riding in the backseat.
This is exactly why we built our camera map, so you can see what's tracking your street, and why we keep pushing people toward our take-action resources to demand audits, retention limits, and real oversight from local officials before the next headline breaks.
