JACOB PETROWSKI applies the same logic of Flock cameras for Gov't. officials for their safety as they are for the public

GOOD NEWS: U.S. Air Force veteran Jeffrey Sovern, the hero accused of chopping down 13 Flock cameras and hit with 13 felonies, is getting MASSIVE support from patriots nationwide! 💪 He’s already raised $30,677.

Somebody should start a GoFundMe or something for this dudes legal fees. Totally serious on that. https://t.co/TO8jhQFalh

Holy crap!!

It just dawned on me…

Flock is the Phoenix Program.

The Jason Group set up a sensor program that automated the kill cycle in Vietnam. It was a sensor program that tracked people and then automatically would kill them when triggered. It was (rightfully) very…

This is horrifying and every American needs to hear this

Flock integrates directly with Palantir who has a $30 million contract with ICE.  Thiel, one of Flock's founders, is also one of Flock's investors.  

It's bad.  It's as if the different municipalities are throwing away citizens' rights to privacy to some Russian surveillance oligarch.  Americans are always the guinea pigs for this, and the envious one think that they're getting some tool that will put the kibosh on their enemies or anonymous criminals.  Ha!

I just don't see American citizens winning.  The immigrants are certainly no help in fighting for Americans.

This site allows you to locate Flock cameras in your area.

TAYLOR ARNOLD: This isn't about stolen cars or some ends of solving crimes. I'm not questioning you know if the tool works. My question is are we comfortable giving permanent data rights to a private company who is funded by Peter Thiel, works and integrates with Palantir, and calls concerned citizens, like myself, "Domestic terrorists."

This contract includes video feeds not just plate numbers, AI Analytics, and the ability to add cameras and devices over time.  This is not a fixed tool, this is infrastructure that is designed to grow. --Taylor Arnold

Flock Safety.

DeFlock is a site that shows you their locations. Thank you to Actionable Intelligence.

Another conspiracy theory proven true. The FLOCK cameras being installed all over America, “It’s not just a license plate reader” Cobb County Board of Commissioners ‘This is just a license plate reader. The contract paints a difference story. This contract includes video feeds, not just plate numbers, AI analytics and the ability to add cameras and devices over time.” “Flock’s terms grant a perpetual, irrevocable license to use customer data to improve its products’ Updates to Flock Safety’s standard Terms and Conditions, effective around February 2026, include language granting the company a limited, non-exclusive, royalty-free, irrevocable, perpetual, worldwide license to use customer data for providing services and to support/improve their products

TRANSCRIPT

Hello.  I want to make sure I'm not sick.  I just talk a lot and I lost my voice, but as you'll hear, timing matters.  So I want to make sure that I still speak today.

My name is Taylor Arnold, and I spoke here last month to discuss my concern regarding the county's partnership with Flock Safety.  But I first really do want to thank chairman Lisa Cupid for opening up a space to allow me to speak with Chief Farrell.  It helps me to try to remain confident that you all do not want to intentionally share this data out.  But I do want to continue to speak on the record on why you have been sold a lie.  While the community continues to be told this is just a license plate reader, the contract paints a different story.  This contract includes video feeds not just plate numbers, AI Analytics, and the ability to add cameras and devices over time.  This is not a fixed tool, this is infrastructure that is designed to grow.  We are told that the data is deleted after 30 days, but as of a couple of weeks ago Flock Safety updated their terms and conditions that state the customer, which is again Cobb County Police Department, grants Flock a perpetual, irrevocable worldwide license to use customer data to provide services to improve its products.  Perpetual, for the record, means forever, and irrevocable means it cannot be withdrawn.  This license does not expire when the contract ends, so while Cobb PD may not only have access to that data for 30 days, Flock retains the right to use that data indefinitely. Every second that these cameras operate more data is generated under that license.  And I think we can even see that with the Guthrie case, where she was not, she didn't purchase the ring partner subscription to have her data stored and yet they were able to still pull that data.  It's a little concerning.  And this really matters when you look at the future of this company. Flock Safety holds a patent describing the ability to search video using characteristics such as gender, clothing, body types, gait, and race and ethnicity.  Whether those features are deployed today or not, the platform is built to evolve.  This isn't about stolen cars or some ends of solving crimes.  I'm not questioning you know if the tool works.  My question is are we comfortable giving permanent data rights to a private company who is funded by Peter Thiel, works and integrates with Palantir, and calls concerned citizens, like myself, "Domestic terrorists."  Or even when City councilors have been able to cancel these contracts, Flock Safety has been known many times to add those cameras back without city approval.  So again, I'm asking the question, are we comfortable giving permanent data rights to a private company before we have fully evaluated those long-term consequences?  I urge you to please reconsider whether these terms reflect the caution of our community deserves especially in a political climate like we are in today.  I know I probably have a few more seconds left.  You know, I'm a product manager.  I work with data all the time and I'm constantly in training of how we should be thinking about how we give our data. And the data that we're really talking about is everyone in this room including you all.  The political climate we're in is really terrifying, and I don't know if we should really be partnering with a company . . . .

Tech Bushcraft says that,

Unbelievably, it's even worse than that. These things are completely insecure, so anyone can tap into them. And any police officer is allowed use them, even from another city. Several times, police officers have been caught using them to stalk people.

ANDREW KAUFMAN, MD: Stores like Home Depot are contracting with Flock to install cameras in their parking lots. HOAs are bringing them in. Nursing homes. Gated communities. Private property that you pass through every day without thinking twice.

Flock cameras aren’t just watching the street, they’re watching you.

Flock cameras aren’t just watching the street, they’re watching you. Stores like Home Depot are contracting with Flock to install cameras in their parking lots. HOAs are bringing them in. Nursing homes. Gated communities. Private property that you pass through every day without thinking twice. That means your license plate can be photographed multiple times a day, logged, stored, and cross-referenced — not because you committed a crime, but because you existed in public.

And suddenly all those new data centers popping up everywhere start to make a lot more sense.

Think about it. Cities are signing contracts. Private corporations are signing contracts. Entire neighborhoods are signing contracts. That’s an explosion of data being collected, processed, and stored — constantly.

People will say, “Relax, it’s just license plates.” For now. How long until it’s biometrics? How long until it’s facial recognition? How long until it’s movement tracking, behavioral profiling, predictive policing?

Every system starts small. Every surveillance program begins with “safety” and “convenience.” And every time, the public is told not to worry — right up until the infrastructure is already in place. This isn’t about catching criminals. It’s about normalizing surveillance. This is a clip from my True Health Report podcast with Hakeem Anwar. Click below to watch right now. https://
