... This week, two lawmakers, Sen. Ron Wyden (D-Ore.) and Rep. Raja Krishnamoorthi (D-Ill.), called for a federal investigation, alleging that Flock has been "negligently handling Americans' personal data" by failing to use cybersecurity best practices. The month prior, Wyden wrote a letter to Flock CEO Garrett Langley, alleging that Flock's security failures mean that "abuse of Flock cameras is inevitable" and that they threaten to expose billions of people's harvested data should a catastrophic breach occur.

"In my view, local elected officials can best protect their constituents from the inevitable abuses of Flock cameras by removing Flock from their communities," Wyden wrote.

Several communities have already come to this conclusion, although their concerns go beyond fears of hackers or potential data breaches.

They're also concerned that law enforcement will use the sweeping database for invasive tracking. For instance, Texas scanned more than 80,000 ALPRs to allegedly do a wellness check on a woman suspected of self-administering an abortion, 404 Media reported.

Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) has also worked with local police to conduct "immigration"-related searches of Flock data, 404 Media reported. (Langley wrote in a blog that providing ICE access is a local decision, "not Flock's decision.") ...

@#2 ... Stop treating people like criminals. ...

That seems to be the initial presumption with this surveillance.

You are guilty until proven innocent.

And, if I may add...

What happens if Pres Trump signs an executive order that allows him to use the Flock data to track the, as he characterizes them, "enemy of the Country, Democrats?"
