Thanks to everyone who replied to my prior post on Flock cameras at the entrance to my work.

I worked some emails to my union asking if I could see any contract between our company and Flock. The request was forwarded to the union president who replied to say that the union doesnt have that information and that they follow corporate policy. He asked if there was a specifc concern that is to be investigated.

I planned to follow up with the lawsuits section of the consumer rights wiki page on Flock (sorry links not working on my end) and possibly the video by Ben Jordan, although, i am hesitant to include any sensationalized and entertainment focused content as evidence to white collar proffesionals. That wouldnt be very substantial. I am looking for discrete and well documented evidence that the Flock cameras are recording and serving out more than license plate information.

Does anyone have anything they can share?

Some police officers also seem to be using Flock data to stalk their exes, partners and potential love interests. The Institute for Justice, a public interest law firm, recently conducted an analysis of media reports and found at least 14 cases across the US where cops are alleged to have accessed ALPR data to “to keep tabs on their romantic interests, including current partners, exes, and even strangers who unwittingly caught their eye in public”.
