Automated License Plate Readers (ALPRs) are AI-powered cameras that capture and analyze images of all passing vehicles, storing details like your car’s location, date, and time. They also capture your car’s make, model, color, and identifying features such as dents, roof racks, and bumper stickers, often turning these into searchable data points. These cameras collect data on millions of vehicles—regardless of whether the driver is suspected of a crime. While these systems can be useful for tracking stolen cars or wanted individuals, they are mostly used to track the movements of innocent people.

Elgin Community College resorted to covering the surveillance cameras with trash bags and zip ties. Public records show that federal immigration authorities have accessed Flock data at other Illinois colleges.

It's flock. Just tell them to go fuck themselves and to sue you. Then when you're required to pay, do what Alex Jones did.

Then sue them.

Fuck it, put a bounty on what flock does. Start setting precedence.

I'd certainly be down to sign onto a class action. Hell, it should be a whole working class effort, ftm.
