Flock Safety cameras, a type of Automated License Plate Recognition (ALPR) technology, are increasingly deployed by local law enforcement across the U.S. to track vehicle movements. These solar-powered, cellular-connected cameras capture license plates, vehicle make/model, and other identifiers, feeding data into searchable databases to assist in investigations of stolen vehicles, missing persons, and other crimes. Despite Flock’s claims of providing transparency and control to cities, critics, including the ACLU, raise significant Fourth Amendment concerns. They argue the technology allows law enforcement to reconstruct travel patterns without warrants, potentially revealing sensitive personal information about individuals’ daily lives, homes, and places of worship. The growing use and subsequent backlash highlight privacy risks and lack of oversight in ALPR technology.
