New Hanover Cuts Ties with Flock Safety | Wilmington News

from Wilmington News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

New Hanover County commissioners have voted unanimously to cut ties with Flock Safety over its controversial license plate reader cameras, citing serious privacy concerns and lack of safeguards — even as they still retain other Flock surveillance tech. The move reflects growing nationwide unease about AI-powered surveillance, with residents pushing back across party lines. While stationary cameras are being phased out, mobile units remain in use, leaving the future of that technology uncertain. Now, the county faces logistical and financial next steps to fully unwind the contract. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
