The short version: A quick viral-style PSA from creator Plonk flags Flock cameras in the wild, another sign everyday drivers are noticing ALPRs whether they like it or not.
Our Take
Credit to Plonk for putting a spotlight, however brief, on Flock Safety's license plate readers. The clip is light on specifics — no location details, no agency named, just a quick PSA-style callout — but that's actually part of the story. These cameras are so widespread now that people are spotting them and posting about it without needing a press release or a FOIA request to know something's off.
That's the real shift happening: ALPR awareness is going mainstream through short-form video, not just policy reports. Every viral clip like this one adds to a growing public record that these systems are everywhere, often installed with little community input and even less transparency about who has access to the data and for how long.
If you want more than a 15-second glimpse, check our camera map to see what's been documented near you, and visit take action if you want to push back on unchecked surveillance in your own town.
