Zye Louvri: Yo Surveye w San w Pa Wè! #shorts

Our Take

Presinor Lubin's short, delivered in Haitian Creole, makes a point that gets lost in a lot of English-language coverage: surveillance doesn't need to be visible to be effective. A camera bolted to a pole can log your plate, your travel patterns, and your presence near a location — and that data can end up tied to an arrest or investigation long before you ever learn it exists. That's the quiet power of ALPR networks like Flock Safety's: no warrant conversation, no knock on the door, just a database quietly building a timeline of your movements.

We appreciate creators reaching non-English-speaking audiences on this issue, because the communities most affected by over-policing and surveillance creep are often the last to get clear explanations of how the tech actually works. Plate readers don't discriminate by language, but awareness campaigns often do — leaving gaps that let these systems expand unchallenged.
