You would probably get pulled over for this, but I like it. There’s a guy in FL who makes an overlay with random shapes on it that doesn’t obscure the plate but that confuse the #flock cameras. I want some.

A federal judge in #Virginia ruled Tuesday that the City of Norfolk’s use of nearly 200 automated #licenseplate readers (#ALPR) from #Flock is constitutional and can continue, dismissing the entire case just days before a bench trial was set to begin.
Two Virginians had claimed that their rights were violated when the Flock network of cameras captured their cars hundreds of times, calling the entire setup a “dragnet #surveillance program.”

According to deflock there are only two flock cameras in my city. They face Lowes...

#Police Told to Be ‘as Vague as Permissible’ About Why They Use #Flock

Police officers are being told to “be as vague as permissible” about why they are using the Flock #surveillance system in order to not leak sensitive information via public records requests, according to records obtained using a public records request.

404 Media: Police Told to Be ‘as Vague as Permissible’ About Why They Use Flock
Jan 27, 2026 at 9:26 AM

The documents show law enforcement sees themselves as being consistently and universally under threat from the people it is supposed to protect.

Saw a post on reddit about someone watching this box get installed on a power pole in their town. One commenter explained this is a PTZ camera and they are being installed all over the country. The high voltage sticker is over glass with the camera behind it. I confirmed this and have seen several myself now. Many are open to the public with no passwords. Several I saw are pointed at apartment complexes or similar but many are pointed at specific houses. The zoom capability allows you to see right into peoples windows. I'm guessing no warrant, and being that its high up on a telephone pole, the expectation of privacy doesnt fit if you can't see from the street. Pretty disturbing that they exist, even more so that these fools are leaving them open to the internet for anyone to access. At least #flock dont disguise their cams but that will probably change as these are similar to flocks condor cams.

Local PD? #ice ?
