The Largest Public Archive of Police Surveillance News · Flock, ALPR, Axon, Facial Recognition, Drones · Updated Hourly
Coverage — The National Record Index
We have logged 78,410 headlines and public records since July 2003, drawn from a monitored network of 32,224+ sources — every Flock, ALPR, Axon and Fusus, facial recognition, gunshot detection, drone, and phone-tracking story we track, sorted into streams.
We are the first source to report
- Newly reported camera locations — anywhere in America, in this index within the hour.
- ALPR votes before they happen — they surface here early, not after the cameras go up.
Filter it, search it, cite it. Links go to the original source; our original news lives here.
