Proton Flock Camera Map

A map has been created to track the locations of Flock's automated license plate readers, which are used by police departments across 49 states to log vehicle data, including license plate numbers, make, model, and color. The map, created by a cybersecurity researcher, lists over 170,000 cameras and devices, 40% more than Flock's reported 120,000. The devices can be searched by ZIP code, allowing users to see where they are located in their area. The data collected by Flock's devices has been used in 46 cases of police officers misusing license plate readers, often to follow people in their personal lives.
