Flock Reconnects Safety Camera a Police Chief Disabled

Original: Flock (YC 2018) Re-Connects Camera Disabled by Police Chief

Flock Safety, the Atlanta-based surveillance company founded in 2018 and backed by Y Combinator, reportedly reconnected a traffic camera that a city police chief had switched off and declared broken, according to The Drive. The case has reignited debate over who controls automated enforcement equipment and whether cities can actually get rid of cameras once they are installed.

Why now: The story raises concerns about corporate overreach, since a private vendor reportedly overrode a police chief's decision to disable a camera in his city.
