THEY RAIDED MY HOUSE OVER A YOUTUBE VIDEO!! #deflock #nomark #nomark project
The short version: A raid on the Nomark Project creator over his anti-Flock videos shows how far authorities will go to silence ALPR critics.
Our Take
The Nomark Project has become one of the sharper thorns in Flock Safety's side, and this video lays out just how far that friction can escalate — from viral press coverage to, allegedly, police showing up at his door citing his own content as justification. Whatever the exact legal theory behind a raid like that, the optics are impossible to ignore: a guy making videos about automated license plate readers becomes the subject of police attention himself. That's not a coincidence, it's a pattern we've watched play out with other ALPR critics and camera-mappers around the country.
We can't verify every detail the creator lays out, and we'd encourage viewers to treat this as one person's account rather than settled fact. But the broader point stands regardless of the specifics: when questioning or documenting a surveillance network invites law enforcement scrutiny of the questioner, that's a chilling effect working exactly as intended. Mass ALPR systems are supposed to be subject to public oversight, not shielded by it.
Credit to Nomark Project for staying in the fight and being transparent about the fallout. If you want to see where these cameras are watching in your own area, check the map, and if you're ready to push back locally, our take-action page has concrete next steps.
