City councils are asking more direct questions about public safety technology. Who’s using it, why it’s being used, and whether it aligns with policy. We’re hosting a live webinar on how agencies are answering these questions in practice. Join us on May 20th for How to Speak to City Councils: Meeting the Moment with Confidence Hear what teams are saying, what’s resonating, and how they’re preparing before the meeting. Plus, takeaways you can use right away: a chief-to-council guide, objection-handling playbook, and updated comms toolkit. Register: bit.ly/4dqWLfD

"We can see what's happening before we get there." The University of St. Thomas is rethinking campus safety with drone as first responder technology, giving public safety officers situational awareness the moment a call comes in. Flock helped power it. Read more: bit.ly/4eKc7yi

"Many residents hesitate to call 911 because they aren't sure if what they heard was a gunshot or a firework." That hesitation can leave officers in Fort Wayne without the information they need. Flock helps close that gap with audio detection that identifies sounds like gunfire, glass breaking, or calls for help, then sends an approximate location to police in real time. The result: officers in @FortWaynePolice get notified even when a call never comes in.

Do more, without adding more. Command Suite brings together the software behind your operations, Enhanced LPR, Nova, and FlockOS, so teams can surface leads faster, connect information across cases, and make better decisions with less manual work. No new hardware. No added headcount. Just smarter workflows that help agencies keep up with growing demands. Because better coordination leads to better outcomes.

This is horrifying and every American needs to hear this California resident exposes what’s really going on with Flock Cameras in America “I want to be clear what these cameras actually are, and I say that with somebody with 20 years of experience in IT. I've served as the chief network architect for Fortune 500 companies, I've designed data centers, and today I work on cloud infrastructure for one of the largest loan origination companies in the country. I'm not speculating on how this technology works. I've read their patents and I know how it works. Flock advertises these cameras as simple license plate readers. But their own patents tell a different story. They're AI-powered surveillance machines that capture every passing vehicle and person and transmit that data to a private corporate cloud, making it queryable by a multitude of state and federal agencies. The city of Corona does not control that database, and Corona residents have no public record rights against a private company's servers. Our daily movements are being harvested by a $7.5 billion corporation, that only answers to venture capital investors, not to us. Flock did not reach that valuation on their per-camera subscription fees. That math doesn't add up The city council should also understand who they're doing business with. Flock CEO was asked whether the company had any federal contracts. He said no. That was a lie. Public records revealed that Flock had been secretly running a pilot program giving the US Border Patrol access to local police camera data without the knowledge of the cities that paid for the cameras. Now consider who's behind the company and where your data flows. Flock integrates directly with Palantir, a data fusion platform, with a $30 million contract with ICE. Peter Thiel, the founder of Palantir, is also one of Flock's primary investors. These are not separate companies with separate agendas. They are connected actors that are building a connected infrastructure. Palantir's own CEO stated publicly just this month that his technology is being used as a political instrument, designed to reduce the political power of certain voters. And that's the ecosystem that our Corona cameras are feeding into. We're not anti-police at all. We're against mass surveillance of innocent residents by a company with a documented record of deception, built by investors with a stated political agenda. We're asking the City Council to start auditing the queries made against Flock's database, to disclose any data sharing agreements, and to take a vote to cancel the Flock safety contract” I looked more into this and he is 100% right Patents describe broader object detection, including tracking people and pedestrians, patents like US11416545B1. The system uses a centralized cloud database for nationwide queries Data goes to Flock’s private cloud, AWS-based, encrypted. Nationwide lookup is common, 75%+ of customers are enrolled enabling cross-jurisdictional searches. Residents have no direct public records access to the corporate servers. This creates a mass surveillance network feeding a private company’s infrastructure If you ask me this is laying the infrastructure for a mass surveillance network in America. We are being lied to. Cancel all contracts nationwide

98% of sexual assault predators in America are never convicted of their crimes. They walk free. We value our privacy in America. Even in public. Post a photo of a @Flock_Safety camera in public and you’ll get lots of views. Instant outrage. But I’m more outraged by this: Every minute, someone in our country is sexually assaulted. Every nine minutes, the victim is a child. 15% of victims told RAINN they don’t report these crimes because they don’t believe they’ll get justice. If 98% walk free? Too often, they’re right. A registry tells you if a convicted predator (2% of cases) lives in your community. It doesn't tell you they got in their car. They’re driving to a mall. They’re going to meet a child. In San Mateo, a convicted offender drove 30 miles on a Sunday afternoon to a busy shopping mall to meet a minor. Flock alerted officers the moment he arrived. In Jackson, TN, Flock helped locate a suspect targeting even younger victims. In Cobb County last Wednesday, authorities caught a 51-year-old man accused of harming at least nine children after a multi-jurisdictional manhunt. He was believed to be traveling to another county to harm more. I get why people worry about cameras in public. I understand the outrage. But I also know this: we allow our phones to track our every step in exchange for directions and a fitness score. We submit to TSA screening, knowing it will keep us safe when we fly. We accept geofencing to stop credit card fraud. At what point do we consider solutions that stop this kind of violent crime? For me personally, the choice is clear. Predators shouldn’t walk free.

Two counties. Nine alleged child victims. One suspect now in custody. A multi-agency operation involving six departments brought the case to a critical turning point.

Do you genuinely believe that these PRIVATELY OWNED Flock cameras are being installed for our ‘safety’? Flock cameras are merely another component of the surveillance state… Data centers serve as the control centers.

After a Spartanburg shooting and an AMBER Alert for two children, Flock cameras helped investigators identify the suspect vehicle well beyond South Carolina's borders.

Raven is an essential answer to stop the spread of gun violence. It pinpoints the location of gunfire to help first responders protect innocent bystanders. It is not a continuous recording device and does not monitor conversations. It detects sounds associated with a serious public safety event.

I serve on East Palo Alto City Council, and we recently had a contentious meeting in which two council member, Ruben Abrica & Carlos Romero, tried to kill Flock Cameras. We kept Flock. Over the weekend our police caught a shooting suspect in under three hours. Flock works!
