Flock says its cameras make US safer - so why are they being sabotaged?

Flock Safety, which manufactures AI-powered cameras used by law enforcement agencies across the United States, reported camera vandalism incidents in multiple jurisdictions. The company's cameras are installed in public spaces and private properties to record vehicle license plates and other data. Opponents of the camera network have damaged or disabled units in various locations. Flock Safety and law enforcement agencies using the cameras argue they assist in solving crimes, while some privacy advocates and residents have raised objections to the surveillance infrastructure.
