A Wisconsin woman was pulled over at gunpoint twice in one week after Milwaukee Police Department staff failed to remove a vehicle alert from the Flock license plate camera system.
A Flock presentation obtained through a public records request shows the surveillance company planned to use dashcams installed in hundreds of thousands of Uber, Lyft and delivery vehicles to collect license plate data for its network.
At least 50 law enforcement officers across the United States have been charged with or accused of misusing Flock automated license plate reader systems to stalk their targets, according to an investigation.
A technology journalist test-driving a Range Rover was surrounded by four police vehicles in a Minnesota parking lot after an automated license plate recognition system incorrectly flagged his vehicle as stolen due to a data entry error.
