Get the Creepy Flock AI Cameras out of Wilmington
Why is This an Issue?
Wilmington has Flock Cameras installed around the City and County. These are Automated License Plate Readers (ALPRs) that capture images of all passing vehicles and record details like your car’s location, date, and time. They also note your car’s make, model, color, and any distinctive features such as dents, roof racks, and bumper stickers.
These cameras collect data on vehicles regardless of whether the driver is suspected of a crime. These systems are marketed as indispensable tools to fight crime, but they ignore the powerful tools police already have to track criminals, such as cell phone location data. And they give the government the ability to track us without a warrant.
