The short version: A meme-style clip from SKORCHED 3ARTH pokes fun at Flock Safety's ALPR sprawl, proving the backlash has gone fully internet-native.
Our Take
When a topic as dry as automated license plate readers starts generating its own meme format, you know the backlash has hit a new gear. SKORCHED 3ARTH's clip leans into humor rather than a policy breakdown, but the joke only lands because enough people already recognize the Flock Safety name and the camera on the corner. That recognition is half the battle — surveillance that goes unnoticed is surveillance that goes unchallenged.
We don't know every beat of this specific video since it's light on description, but the hashtags tell the story: DeFlock, goldrush, Flock cameras. It's part of a growing wave of creators treating ALPR expansion as the punchline it deserves to be, mocking a company that's quietly wallpapered American streets with license-plate tracking infrastructure while selling it as just another public safety tool.
Memes won't dismantle a camera network, but they lower the barrier for people to start asking questions about who's watching their commute and why. If this clip got you curious about what's actually mounted near you, check the map to see documented ALPR locations in your area, and visit take action if you want to push back for real.
