Hawley says this is a mass surveillance network like we’ve never seen being setup right here in America at a very shockingly fast pace

He says Flock is also searchable by bumper stickers on vehicles, like Trump stickers or NRA or pro-life or anything. Flock is using AI to be able to identify people down to the bumper stickers on their cars, even dents

“Flock's cameras can even recognize whether people are in the images. And in fact, Flock admitted in a letter to me ahead of this hearing that you could search their database based on people's images. You could ask to search people, images that had people, images that are scanning the the inside of the cars. I mean, this is really quite extraordinary”

“What seems to make these networks unique is not just the sheer number of cameras, it's the fact that they're all linked together and powered and searchable by AI. It's unlike anything we've ever seen in this country before — They store and catalog details like the vehicle's make, model, color, location, date, time. Flock's searchable features include details like dents and roof cracks and vehicle damage and racks on the roof or racks on the back or specific bumper stickers even. You think about that. I mean, Flock can tell you if a car has a Trump sticker or a Harris sticker or a Pro-Life America sticker or an NRA sticker.

It's really quite extraordinary.”

Just so you can get a sense of how truly vast the mass surveillance network already is in America with Flock cameras I included the current September 2026 map of all Flock cameras installed. It is insane

Why is this being allowed to happen

I was told by poster’s here who support flock, because safety, that the cameras are no different than a ring camera.

Is there a way to confuse the cameras about your face?

me too….”if you ain’t doing nutin wrong”

I believe this is illegal in some states. Not sure 100% though. I believe some places consider your car an extension of your home, if so, I wonder how many of those flock supporters would be ok with a govt contractor with a camera pointed in their windows.

Flock has also shown in their own demonstrations to police departments the system's ability to track many other things other than license plates.

But, hey......I bet that still won't slow down the "I've done nothing wrong and they already have that tech......" crowd.

You could but they also document every ding/sticker/detail about your vehicle.

News flash............the IRS knows your address, access to all your financial records, your relationships with any relative, your social security number, your bank account information including any offshore, your credit card history, any homes or real estate you own, and all your businesses.

I forgot to add...its the Joos, it must be the Jooos

Alisa not directed at you, just the last poster on the thread.

The IRS is a federal agency...FLOCK isn't.

Really depends on algorithm for facial recognition that they are using.
The FBI has an algorithm that can still recognize with a wu flu mask on, or face paint on. Granted, percentage to match decreases. But I have no idea what percentage of match they would need to get a warrant.

I just had an idea. Get a bunch of magnetic dings/scratches and stick them on. Then move them every few days.

Thanks ninth.

So the federal govt can intrude on my rights, but a private company is a no no?

When you live outside the US and do your taxes there is a form you have to fill out listing your bank account numbers and the balance. So 75K people at the IRS including some somalis and nigerians know my banking info.......that concerns me. Someone watching me scratch may balls at a stoplight....not so much.

As a sidenote, did you know after 911 the US threatened taking countries off the SWIFT banking system if they did not sign an agreement lettting them check anyone's bank account EVEN IF THEY ARE NOT A US CITIZEN....
