EFFecting Change Livestream Series: Get the Flock Out of Our City (TV webcast)
februari 19 @ 21:00 - 22:00
Flock contracts have quietly spread to cities across the USA, but Flock automated license plate readers (ALPRs) erode civil liberties from the moment they’re installed.
While officials claim these cameras keep neighborhoods safe, the evidence tells a different story. The data reveals how Flock has enabled surveillance of people seeking abortions, protesters exercising First Amendment rights, and communities targeted by discriminatory policing. This is exactly why cities are saying no. From Austin to Cambridge to small towns across Texas, jurisdictions are rejecting Flock contracts altogether, proving that surveillance isn’t inevitable—it’s a choice.
