Boulder Cameras Under Fire

Two Boulder residents are suing the city over its controversial Flock Safety surveillance cameras, arguing they violate Colorado’s privacy protections by tracking people’s movements without warrants. The cameras capture license plates, GPS locations, and even facial and clothing details—data accessible to thousands of law enforcement agencies nationwide. Plaintiffs William Freeman and Gwen Steel say they’re constantly monitored on commutes and public outings, and they’re demanding transparency, data release, and a court ruling declaring the system unconstitutional. Despite a failed state bill to regulate such tech, Boulder continues paying $82,500 annually for the system—used in 75 other Colorado communities—while thousands of database queries, including those tied to immigration, still occur.
