Wilder Idaho Votes to Delay Surveillance Overhaul | Boise News

Wilder, Idaho, narrowly rejected a sweeping proposal to ban Flock Safety cameras and overhaul its surveillance systems—thanks to the mayor’s decisive vote. The debate erupted after a resident sued over alleged illegal installation, only for the state attorney general to find the contract legal.
