Flock cameras are tracking people as well as cars

A joint investigation found that a physically removed Flock ALPR camera yielded stored footage and an encryption key that allowed access to thousands of vehicle detections; researchers also recovered on-device models capable of detecting people. The report details privacy risks from searchable movement records, widespread inter-agency access, and internal police use to track officers, and calls for strict deployment, retention, access controls, audits, and independent security assessments.
