Texas city demands $2M for records on Flock camera use
Original: Texas city demands $2M for public records on Flock usage
A Texas city is demanding $2 million to fulfil a public records request concerning its use of Flock automated license plate surveillance cameras, according to Ars Technica. Transparency advocates say the steep fee effectively blocks public oversight of how the surveillance technology is deployed, raising fresh concerns about Flock's rapid expansion and the public's ability to scrutinize police data collection.
Why now: The unusually high fee is seen as a barrier to transparency over controversial license plate surveillance technology.
