FLOCK CEO GARRETT LANGLEY CALLS DEFLOCK.ORG A “TERRORISTIC ORGANIZATION”
The short version: Flock Safety's CEO reportedly branded DeFlock.org "terroristic" for mapping ALPR cameras, and YouTuber Devin's clip shows exactly why that rhetoric should worry you.
Our Take
If the quote is accurate, it's a remarkable thing for the head of a company that blankets American streets with license-plate cameras to say about a volunteer project that simply documents where those cameras are. Credit to Devin for surfacing the clip and putting it in front of more eyes — this is the kind of moment that deserves scrutiny, not a shrug.
Calling transparency "terroristic" is a familiar move: when the facts are uncomfortable, attack the people pointing at them. Mapping camera locations isn't sabotage, it's basic civic accountability — the same instinct that gets police scanners published and court dockets opened to the public. A surveillance company that bristles at being tracked the way it tracks everyone else is telling you something about its priorities.
