Flock Seeks Removal of Map Showing Its US Surveillance Cameras
Original: Flock (YC 2017) Wants Detailed Map of Its Surveillance Cameras Taken Offline
Surveillance company Flock, a Y Combinator alum from 2017, is pressing for the takedown of a detailed map documenting roughly 300,000 of its license-plate-reader cameras across the United States, according to The Intercept. The effort is drawing criticism from privacy advocates who argue the public has a right to know where the devices operate.
Why now: People are debating the tension between a surveillance company's business interests and public transparency about camera locations.
