DEFLOCK THE ALPR FLOCK AND DRONE Survailence #whattheflock #flocksafety #flocksong #privacy #hero
The short version: A creator named Jason Healer turns ALPR and drone surveillance into a viral-style song, proving Flock Safety's overreach is now pop culture fodder.
Our Take
Credit where it's due: Jason Healer took a subject that usually puts people to sleep in city council meetings and turned it into something people actually share. When a plate-reader dragnet becomes meme and song material with hashtags like #whattheflock, that's a sign the public is starting to feel the cameras watching, even if they can't cite the vendor contract or the retention policy. Culture moves faster than policy, and sometimes a hook sticks where a council testimony doesn't.
We don't know the full runtime or every claim in the video since the description is thin, but the instinct behind it lines up with what we've been documenting for a while: ALPR networks and drone programs are expanding block by block, often without public votes, without clear retention limits, and without meaningful oversight. Humor and music are just another way of saying the quiet part loud.
If this song makes you wonder how many Flock cameras are near your own house, go check our map and see for yourself. And if it makes you angry enough to do something about it, our take-action page has the templates and steps to push back at your next council meeting.
