🚨 Flock has a hidden weakness many don’t know: public records requests. Activists have successfully forced at least 8 cities to shut down Flock programs, either by exposing unauthorized data access or showing the footage was publicly accessible. One of the most effective ways to take down Flock cameras? FOIA/PRA requests. Here’s a template to file one in your city: To the Custodian of Records: Pursuant to the (your state here) Public Records Act (your state's public records act code.), I request access to and copies of the following public records relating to the (your local police) Police Department’s surveillance camera network reportedly consisting of more than 2,600 cameras deployed throughout the city.

Camera Locations Records identifying: -The number and location of cameras deployed -Maps, GIS datasets, or inventories of surveillance devices -Any classification of cameras as public, private-partner, or third-party integrated cameras (If precise coordinates are withheld, provide generalized location records or district-level inventories.) 4.

Communications Emails, memoranda, and internal communications between (your city) Police Department personnel, City officials, or vendors referencing: -Expansion of the camera network -Privacy concerns -Public opposition or legal review Search terms should include: “camera network”, “surveillance cameras”, “real time crime center”, "Aerodome", "Raven", “ALPR”, “Flock”, “facial recognition”, and “camera integration”. Format Please provide records in electronic format via email or download link. If any records are withheld, please provide the specific statutory exemption relied upon and produce all reasonably segregable portions of responsive documents. Fee Waiver This request concerns matters of significant public interest involving government surveillance and constitutional rights, and any fees should be waived or minimized. I look forward to your response within the statutory timeframe.

We passed 2 Trojan horses and no one cares.

As you know by now, Julia Letlow’s own pollster shows us LEADING in the polls. Now you know exactly why the panic and shrill attacks exploded from her campaign last week. They’re scared. Watch this video as I lay it all out: my record, who I really am, and what’s at stake for Louisiana. I’m the true MAGA conservative fighter Louisiana needs in Washington — physician, Navy veteran, businessman, Freedom Caucus founder, and State Treasurer with a proven America First record. Louisiana deserves a real fighter in Washington, not more of the same. Early voting continues this week. Election Day is June 27. I’d be honored to earn your support and deliver the win. —John Fleming.🇺🇸 #LouisianaFirst #AmericaFirst
