Flock cameras are all over Oakland County. This company, funded by one of the richest men alive, and the co-founder of Palantir, Peter Thiel, is at the forefront of turning our county into a surveillance state.

A privately owned company should not be able to track anyone, anywhere in the country, and then sell that data to the highest bidder. There is no oversight or regulation on how this data is used.

Flock cameras rely on AI to automate policing and it often makes mistakes. In several cases the AI software has misread plates, causing innocent people to be fined, arrested, and in one case, get mauled by police dogs.

Flock cameras are easily hacked and misused. There have been cases where criminals have used the technology to stalk and harass people.

What has been marketed as a tool to stop crime, is actually a blatant violation of the 4th Amendment, and is bringing more dangers to our communities.

The best part? Our tax dollars are funding it. A contract for 70 cameras costs upwards of $1 Million

Our privacy, our streets, and our trust in local government are at stake. Sign to protect Oakland County residents from mass surveillance.
