Flock ALPR and Gunshot Detection Oversight

Questioned the security and auditability of Flock cameras and raised concerns about mass surveillance and lack of public debate on digital tracking.

Noted the high volume of camera alerts and asked how police prioritize responses, misreads, and redactions.

Urged the board to drop Flock contracts due to reliability issues and budget constraints.

Asked for robust tracking mechanisms for data shared with outside agencies to prevent unauthorized access by immigration or federal authorities.

Raised concerns about system hacks and urged the board to recognize fundamental flaws in automated surveillance.

Stated that the board's job is to scrutinize systems rather than make them palatable, and urged canceling the Flock contract.

Pointed out that Vallejo's transparency page shows data sharing with agencies facing lawsuits over state law violations.

Expressed that automated surveillance feels like profiling and violates Fourth Amendment privacy rights.
