Flock says its new tool will help identify police abuse, but hasn’t explained how it works
Flock, a surveillance company, announced a tool called Audit Assistance that it says will help identify police abuse and claims has already caught abusive behavior. The company has made the tool mandatory for all customers but has not disclosed technical details about how it operates, leaving questions about its actual effectiveness.
Why it matters: Law enforcement agencies and civil rights stakeholders should understand how police surveillance tools claim to detect misconduct; lack of transparency about Audit Assistance functionality makes it difficult to evaluate whether it provides meaningful accountability or merely creates a false impression of oversight.
