==Tracking?==

Flock's PR statements and marketing materials state that their systems "do not track" people. When considering a single ALPR, that is essentially true. It only identifies each person, and records the exact time, place and direction they were seen. However, Flock's network of surveillance devices are deployed in such a way that they are repeatedly doing this, potentially more than once per minute. This enables Flock's AI to track each person's moment over time, using essentially pins on a map. As soon as a person stops moving, Flock knows that person has stopped within the current surveillance perimeter. If their cameras are deployed in enough places, they can go beyond that, recording exactly where each person is, who they are talking with, and so forth. This is inconstant with their public statements, and the materials they provide to their customers to calm concerned citizens. However, Flock's internal training materials have been found to clearly acknowledge that they are, indeed, tracking people.<ref>https://www.kswo.com/2026/06/15/flock-says-its-cameras-dont-track-people-its-own-training-videos-say-otherwise/</ref><ref>https://www.cleveland19.com/2026/06/15/flock-says-its-cameras-dont-track-people-its-own-training-videos-say-otherwise/</ref><ref>https://www.investigatetv.com/video/2026/06/15/flock-says-its-cameras-dont-track-people-its-training-videos-say-otherwise/</ref>

Flock's PR statements and marketing materials state that their systems "do not track" people. When considering a single ALPR, that is essentially true. It only identifies each person, and records the exact time, place they were seen, along with the direction they were traveling. However, Flock's network of surveillance devices are deployed in such a way that they are repeatedly doing this, potentially more than once per minute. This enables Flock's AI to track each person's moment over time, using essentially pins on a map. As soon as a person stops moving, Flock knows that person has stopped within the current surveillance perimeter. If these cameras are deployed in enough places, they can go beyond that, recording exactly where each body is located, who they are talking with, and so forth. This is inconstant with their public statements, and the materials they provide to their customers to calm concerned citizens.
