   IMO, when they have to hide, that's the beginning of the end. Too many people are aware of the what/why now. And above all else, once the tables turn on elected officials and they realize they're under the same surveillance, I bet their tune will change (likely due to a public egg-on-face moment involving illegal or suspicious activity). If people keep the pressure on, this will be a "remember when" rather quickly.

      Government officials should be highly transparent. Privacy for the people, transparency for the government.

         I'm waiting to find out that Flock systems do not log the data when the plates are recognized as gov't issued plates.

            Flock+ is only $29/month and can remove up to three plates per subscription.

               Nobody deletes anything. It'll all still be soft-deleted and they'll still have you present in the backups which will be what is ultimately searched by the unadvertised Flock++ members. Read: Governments.
