Posted

Enforcing the law and getting bad guys off the street resonates with nearly everyone. Flock cameras are an effective tool toward that end, law-enforcement agencies say. But do Flock cameras cross a line? Flock cameras have been removed in some Arizona cities and are undergoing scrutiny and debate in others over concerns about surveillance technologies colliding with civil liberties. Who gets the information from them? For how long is that information stored? How is it used and shared? Should they be allowed? Who should govern their use and storage of information?
