Flock Camera EXPLOSION After Trump Inauguration
The short version: Julian Dorey flags a reported post-inauguration surge in Flock camera installs — a trend worth tracking, not dismissing as coincidence.
Our Take
Julian Dorey's clip points at something we've been watching too: a reported jump in Flock Safety camera deployments right around the change in administration. We can't verify his specific figures, but the underlying pattern isn't new — ALPR rollouts tend to accelerate whenever political attention shifts, whether that's a new "public safety" mandate, a federal grant cycle, or just local police departments moving fast before public scrutiny catches up.
What matters here isn't the partisan framing, it's the mechanism. Flock cameras get installed quietly, often without a public vote, a privacy hearing, or any meaningful debate about who gets access to the data and for how long. By the time communities notice the mast and the solar panel on the corner pole, the contract is already signed and the footage is already flowing into a nationwide network that your local council never approved. Surges like the one this video describes are exactly how you end up with blanket coverage nobody consented to.
Credit to Julian Dorey for putting a spotlight on the timing — that kind of attention is how these rollouts get noticed before they're normalized. If you want to see what's actually been installed near you, check our camera map, and if you're ready to push back on a deployment in your town, our take-action page walks you through it.
