Flock cameras photograph every license plate that passes and log it in a searchable police database. Cottonwood residents have been meeting about what the town does with them. The third is August 1. 11 a.m. to noon, Cottonwood Public Library, Ewald Room, 100 S 6th St. Guest Sandy helped get Flock cameras removed in Sedona. You do not need to have been at the first two. Sedona proves a town can reverse this. https://www.mobilize.us/indivisible-ccc/event/988637/ #Arizona #Cottonwood #Surveillance Please boost.

@AZAdvocacyHub@mastodon.social there is people who literally destroy those cameras in the name of "for people" If they are installed by taxpayers money and is going to be replaced with more taxpayers money when they destroy them then whats the point of vandalising a pole with camera and solar panel attached to it?

@AZAdvocacyHub@mastodon.social Two cases from the same Wisconsin investigation: an officer ran a woman's plate 124 times and her ex-boyfriend's 55 times — each logged as 'investigation.' The detective later assigned to look into him was charged with identical misuse, plus secretly installing a GPS tracker on a woman's car. https://www.thebluf.news/p/flock-camera-misuse
