Flock routinely rewards themselves for being the most transparent company in the industry.

Last week they banned ticket-holding journalists from their Flock Forward event.

Then, they quite literally had an employee contact a hotel on my behalf and cancel my room reservation.

Josh Thomas, Flock Safety: “Ultimately, I would argue that the whole community is our customer.” Flock is holding a conference in ATL this week with police from all over the country about its cameras. Even the location is undisclosed. You & I are not 'the customer' & not welcome.

Have you looked into any other brands like Axom? (blackrock/vanguard)

Stepping in as a third party to cancel your hotel reservation sure is a novel way to say "no, we aren't creepy nosy busybodies or stalkers or anything like that."

Are you going to pursue legal recourse for this fraudulent cancellation of your private hotel reservation?

Woah... That's crossing a very hard line.

Pretending to be someone else to gain access to and remove their housing while funneling their money. The courts better do something about this without dragging you through the ringer. This is infuriating.

That aside. Thank you for pressing flock and speaking out about it! "All it takes for evil to win, is for good men to do nothing."

But they're not doing anything illegal nor immoral - just ask them. Oh wait, you can't as you're banned. They're clowns 🤡

I would report them to the police for that. The employee had to be impersonating someone to pull that off.

They know they are a sham company. It's why the CEO is afraid of his own cameras.

American surveilled the Flock CEO and found he takes different routes and changes out his vehicles daily, likely to make it harder to track him

Rules for thee, but not for me

“After surveilling the CEO of Flock for 3 days, my private investigator found 3 separate cars, three separate routes, and 3 different plates. If the man who made his fortune recording your license plate changes his own every day to preserve his privacy, then what does that tell you about the value of privacy itself?”

“The reality is, the evidence that Flock prevents crime is nonexistent. Cities that have been covered in Flock cameras saw the same crime reduction as cities with none, because crime fell nationwide everywhere at the same time.

Flock simply stood in front of a falling curve it didn't cause and called it proof”

The data being referenced is from Council on Criminal Justice and it shows crime days through 2025

- Nationwide crime days showed a 36% decline since 2021<br>- Houston Texas which is heavily saturated with flock only saw a 36% reduction in crime during this same time period

Meaning the crime rate fell at the same rate whether there were flock cameras or not

Keep in mind there are 3,800 flock cameras in the Houston area so you would logically expect the decline in crime to be much greater, but homicides only fell at the national average

I’m more impressed that Hilton allowed the flock contact to just lie to them, nothing would stop anyone with this level of checking.
