Flock faces bipartisan Senate scrutiny over ‘AI Surveillance Network’
Flock drew bipartisan concern at a Senate Judiciary subcommittee hearing about its “AI Surveillance Network” after its CEO declined to testify; witnesses included cybersecurity researchers, a sheriff who ended a Flock contract, and a woman alleging a mistaken arrest tied to Flock cameras. Lawmakers asked about data retention, security vulnerabilities reported by researcher Benn Jordan, and potential access by federal or local actors for immigration, abortion or gun‑related tracking.
