Automated License Plate Readers (ALPRs) are AI-powered cameras that capture and analyze images of all passing vehicles, storing details like your car’s location, date, and time. They also capture your car’s make, model, color, and identifying features such as dents, roof racks, and bumper stickers, often turning these into searchable data points. These cameras collect data on millions of vehicles—regardless of whether the driver is suspected of a crime. While these systems can be useful for tracking stolen cars or wanted individuals, they are mostly used to track the movements of innocent people.

All any town/city that bans Flock (when then Flock fails to comply) would need to do is put out an open hit on their cameras. That's it, just greenlight it, "We are officially not charging people for damaging Flock property, have fun." Cameras will be gone overnight.
