Following a referendum, League City has decided to disable all 55 of its Flock Safety cameras within 72 hours of the vote being certified. This decision comes after concerns about mass surveillance and data privacy led to several local governments and police departments ending their contracts with Flock. Flock Safety, which provides surveillance software including license plate readers, has faced backlash for its technology being used to stalk individuals and shared with federal agencies like ICE. Despite Flock's claims that it does not sell data and does not contract with ICE, the company has donated to local and state political campaigns, raising further questions about the use and oversight of the technology.
